The first and most widly reconised form of archery is hunting. Using archery to hunt is known as bowhunting. Bowhunting differs from hunting with firearms, as the distances between the hunter and the game are much shorter in order to ensure a humane kill. Because archers must be much closer to their target animal, bowhunting is a unique experience, with special attention paid to the animal’s sense of smell, hearing and sight. This limit on effective range and greater degree of hunter-prey interaction create an intimacy that some hunters find very attractive. This has been going on since the invention of the bow. Here is an example of what archery can be used to hunt.
