Why is archery popular in the US today?

     The reason why archery is popular in the US today is most likely the influence of The Hunger Games.  Many children, mainly girls, were attracted to archery, since Katniss, who is the main character in The Hunger Games, uses the bow and arrow in the movie.  She is so strong and so independent that many girls try to imitate her.  One of other factors is that the archery is an independent sport.  At the independent sports, player can practice almost by him or herself at their own pace.  In addition, archery can be played indoors.  The archery is the one sport that running hard or tackle someone is not required.  People who don’t like to play sports or don’t like to play as a team also can begin the archery easily.  Finally, children make their parents accompany to purchase archery.  It’s one big opportunity that not only archery popularity is growing by those adults but also parents and children, especially dads and daughters, can be connected.  As a result, the archery is the popular sport in the today’s US.
