Product Information

The Hunger Games is set in a post-apocalyptic society. Have you ever thought about what archery might look like in that situation? I always find it super-interesting how many young female characters have male mentor figures. Just like Katniss has Haymitch in The Hunger Games, in Disney+’s Hawkeye Kate Bishop (Hailee Steinfeld) is mentored by Avenger Clint Barton (Jeremy Renner). Susan (played by Anna Popplewell) is the elder sister and second eldest Pevensie child. As well as being a great leader and highly intelligent, she is also a talented archer. Susan’s bow and arrows, along with her horn, were her most prized possessions when she reigned in Narnia as Queen Susan the Gentle. 8) Guinevere, King Arthur (2004)

The officially licensed bow and arrows are a replica of those used in James Cameron’s feature film Avatar and are a great accessory for when you want to join the Navi in battle! Makes for hours of archery fun! She wins ‘her own hand’ when she beats ALL the would-be suitors. That’s more like it. 7) Susan Pevensie, The Lion, the Witch and the Wardrobe (2005) The bow's wood is crafted from Hometree and the string is made from animal gut. Other elements, such as the blue leaf-like structures sprouting from the handle of the bow, are presumably made from leaves or other Na'vi-constructed materials. All the materials are held together by tightly woven straps and strings. The arrows are held by a cylinder-like structure in front of the handle of the bow, freeing the Na'vi wielders from needing a quiver to hold the arrows in a Terran-like fashion. [3] In contrast, female archers in fiction frequently use the bow and arrow as their weapon of choice as a warrior: nothing more, nothing less. In fact, female archer warriors use the bow and arrow so often, it’s become a trope of its own.We pride ourselves on excellent customer service – so please talk to us about any problems and let us get it sorted.

In this version of the legend, Guinevere (played by Keira Knightley) is Merlin’s daughter. Unlike him, she does not wield magic, but a bow and arrow. Outside of the movie, Knightley said she ‘felt let down’ that the US movie posters gave her ‘strange, droopy breasts’. 9) Mulan, Mulan (1998 and 2020) These officially licensed bow and arrows are a replica of those used in James Cameron’s feature film Avatar and are a great accessory for when you want to join the Navi in battle! Makes for hours of archery fun! This AppleTV series is set five hundred years in the future where nearly all humans are blind. Humans have adapted, so they can do most things sighted people take for granted, included fighting and war. You don’t have to look far to find female archers in fiction. Though male archers obviously do exist too, this is often part of their specific characterisation (Arrow and Hawkeye are the most obvious here). I also wonder if it’s something to do with the US idiom ‘straight arrow’, meaning ‘an honest, morally upright person’, especially when so many of these female archers are protagonists (aka heroes / heroines). Conscious or unconscious, it seems likely! Top 10 Female Archers
