Archery safety practices

Archery safety involves handling equipment responsibly to prevent accidents. Always point the bow and arrow away from people, and only draw when ready to shoot. Use a designated shooting area, ensuring no one is in the line of fire. Check that the arrows and bow are in good condition before use. Wear appropriate protective gear, like an armguard and finger tab. Never dry-fire (firing without an arrow), as this can damage the bow. Always follow range rules, wait for a clear signal to shoot, and retrieve arrows only after everyone has finished shooting and given the all-clear. Safety ensures a fun and injury-free experience.
