Terrific performance from <a href="https://www.archysport.com/2022/03/bressols-the-beautiful-results-of-archery-this-week/” title=”Bressols. The beautiful results of archery this week”>Emmanuel Dupuis who returns from the Oise department with a bronze medal won at the French Beursault championship in archery. “This traditional discipline is widely practiced in the Northern region, and brought together more than 500 people in all categories, including 80 in that of Emmanuel. It is therefore a great feat for our archer to rise among the best knowing that it was the only southern male medalist” indicates Eddy Gobbato, president of the Appamean arch company. Concretely, Beursault shooting, also called “Beursault game” or “noble arc game”, has been practiced in France for more than seven centuries in arc gardens. The practice of this particular shot takes place back and forth, 40 times in a row, i.e. 20 stops preceded by 2 test stops. In addition to its traditional side, Beursault shooting is, at a sporting level, a very educational and very difficult shot. Having to pull once in one direction and the other requires great concentration. In short, a great feat to be credited to Emmanuel Dupuis who brought home a beautiful bronze medal at the foot of the three bell towers. Finally, the archery company had its traditional club celebration with the Roy shooting for a moment of exchange and conviviality. This practice of archery has been known in France at least since the Renaissance. It is also called “bird shooting”, namely the one who first shoots in a good and valid manner, a bird of approximately a thumb’s volume and generally made of wood, placed at the top of a pole or at the center of a map. The Roy shot allowed four local archers to be crowned in the mini-roytelet category. It’s Kyllian who shoots the right arrow, followed by Fiona in the para-roy category. Then it’s Vincent’s turn who hits the nail on the head and is crowned Roy. Finally, Jordan is crowned Roytelet for the second year in a row.
