the sport of shooting arrows at a stationary target
Target archery is a competitive sport where archers shoot arrows at a stationary target, typically set at a specific distance. The goal is to hit the center of the target, known as the "bullseye," to score the highest points.

This sport is usually performed outdoors or indoors, with varying distances depending on the level of competition.
