Hanno De Klerk

I started with archery on a young age of 7 years old when my dad came back from an ATA show in America. It all began with the interest in hunting and spending time in the great outdoors from a young age. Target archery got my attention in the year that I turned 14. I soon realised that this is a total different challenge, instead to shoot 1 perfect arrow I had to repeat it numerous times. I suddenly got the urge to shoot better and to accomplish a near "perfect" form. I always believe that there is room for improvement on my shooting style and equipment.

It always fascinates me to see the pro archers shoot perfect NFAA rounds (300 60X’s) and also the scores on the Vegas target. It would be a dream come true if I can compete against those archers

I am an up and coming target archer that shoots as a junior in South Africa. My main goal is to be a professional ambassador for South Africa, archery and to reward my sponsors by ranking as high as possible in each competition I enter. To be a good ambassador for the sport and my sponsors, is not only to perform on the shooting line but also to support and encourage other archers by what I do and be the best person I can possibly be off the shooting line in any situation
