Description
Archery Manipuri Bamboo Arrow (Pack of 3)
Archery in Manipur is as old as the Manipuri culture itself. The bamboo bow and arrow has been in action since time immemorial, be it for battles, hunting, or recreational sports.
An archer shooting an arrow experiences cast, essentially the arrow’s speed and distance.
The greater the cast – the greater an arrow’s speed/distance/momentum – the better.
Fast arrows spend less time in the air, take a more direct route to the target, are less affected by wind and atmospheric conditions.
However, for a given cross-sectional area, a slightly heavier arrow will punch through the air better at the expense of sight marks at longer distances.
