Try hitting a moving target at 40 metres. You'll probably miss. He'll probably miss as well, but he'll have a significant edge being able to shoot while moving closer towards the other archer.

Kyudo is a very nice and sort of meditative experience. I'm guessing it's the same for other forms of stationary archery. It'll really teach you how to work your bow. Slowly and methodically. No one who practices kyudo expects to be able to fight a battle with it. This guy pretty much shows why.

The samurai to which kyudo is descended from certainly expected to win battles with it...

The samurai were noted horse archers so they seem to have adoped the move and shoot approach for actual combat as well.
