The Marangai Archery Club welcomed scores of first-timers to its latest open day, and club president Rob McMillan says things have started to take off in 2022.
McMillan, a 56-year veteran, said there were 37active members on the books, with a further 20 learning the tricks of the trade every Sunday.
Timing and calmness were key to the sport, he said.
"You've got to relax and trust your training," McMillan said.
"Archery is more of a long-term thing. You don't get good overnight, it's all about patience."
