Kyudo is the name of traditional japanese archery. The arrow is held with a glove. The bow is hold vertically and the index finger points to the target.

Because the practice of kyudo involves little in the way of hard physical activity, spirit is extremely important. When the spirit is weak the shooting becomes dull and lifeless. Onuma sensei taught that if the spirit is strong one will appear like a deep-flowing river, calm on the surface but with tremendous power hidden in the depths.
