How to Begin Youth Archery Training
There is no specific age for children to begin youth archery training. Some children can get ready for archery training at an early age under 10, while some take longer to discover their interest in bow hunt or archery. No matter what age they begin training on archery, parents should supervise them all the time till they become fully trained and acquire a professional certification.
There are different kinds of youth archery training in Cape Town such as:
· After School Archery Training

Basic Necessities
You basically need things like a bow, arrows, and a target in order to begin the training. Additionally, you would need certain precautions like a quiver to hold the arrows, an arm guard to protect your arm against the string slap, and some finger or hand protection. Another major thing to take care of, especially for much younger children, is to use suction cup arrows rather than standard metal tip. This will help your youth get comfortable with aiming and shooting the bow much faster, so they can use a sharper arrow sooner.
When selecting the bow for your youth you would need to take the following factors into account:
· Bow-length
· Eye Dominance
· Draw-length
· Draw-width
These factors will vary from person and person and for a particular child these factors will keep changing with the age.
