Butt shooting

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Butt shooting is a variety of longbow archery where a person will shoot at wedge shaped turfs of earth. On the turfs small round plaster targets would be placed. Such targets were formerly mandated by statute in every parish in England for archers to practice on.[1]
