Horseback Archery is the latest equestrian/archery sport to come into the UK, imported from Hungary and Germany just a few years ago. This highly exciting sport is a combination of horse riding and great horsemanship with the skill of archery it makes this sport extremely popular. The sport involves two martial arts that exercises great skills and discipline from both horse and rider. There are a few different styles and techniques that are practised and many countries develop them into their training.

Horseback Archery is steadily growing in popularity and it has become a discipline in its own right.

Although the sport can be very fast, it is a safe and an enjoyable, fun sport that any age can compete, any type of horse can be used not matter what height, age or breed.
