I managed years ago to tape a bit about archery in the Butan, probably still got it. They had decided to go for Olympic archery so the film showed what they did then. Spectators line the route to the target, the archers were shooting compound barebow and of course there is a lot of noise and shouting and jeering and cheering, they shoot quite a small target at a long distance.

Apparently they had never had an accident till they invited a visiting English lord to have a go thinking he would be proficient in all the military arts. He managed to miss the target and hit a spectator.

I thought that was normal! No wonder I get strange looks on the shooting line

Sounds a bit like our annual christmas Darts shoot, only that involves the throwing of peanuts too!
