Move over, Hunger Games – this is the real deal 🏹🐎
Horseback archery is exactly what it sounds like: athletes sprinting on horseback (no reins!) while firing arrows at targets with unreal precision. 🎯
Rooted in ancient warrior cultures – from Mongols to samurai – it’s now a fast-growing global sport with world championships, international circuits, and seriously badass energy. 🔥
The challenge? You’re aiming for bullseyes at a gallop with your horse as your co-pilot. As one rider put it: “There’s simply the bow and the target… and of course, the horse underneath you.” 🫣
No reins, just instincts. No pressure, just centuries of tradition. Honestly? Katniss could never. 🙅♀️
