Introduction

What is traditional archery?

Traditional archery is the craft passed down through generations, long before bows with sights and stabilizers existed. At Maidan Archery, we study the horsebow — a short, curved bow once drawn from horseback.

With no sights to rely on, what is trained is not precision but stillness. Every arrow demands proper posture, a conscious draw, and a release that is never hurried.

Approach

Adab before technique

At Maidan Archery, adab — the manners and conduct that shape a person — is always placed above technique. This includes adab toward the equipment, the venue, and fellow archers.

Every preparation — observing adab, training, selecting equipment, applying technique, settling oneself, and prayer — is part of the effort. As for the result, whether the target is struck or not, it rests entirely with the decree of Allah.
