My husband's lineage starts in the Ivorian village of Nafamadougou, near the borders of Mali and Burkina Faso. Centuries ago, they were hunters with bows and arrows, but now they cultivate fields for food crops.
My husband had a go with archery at the Royal Norfolk Show, where one could have five shots for £1. He'd never held a bow before, but effortlessly fired off his arrows and got two in the inner ring and three in the bullseye.
The chap who was overseeing it asked where he'd trained! And he even went behind and got his own composite, expensive bow for my husband to try. He said he was holding the bow perfectly correctly. It's obviously in his blood from those hunter ancestors all those generations ago.
