| Summary: | Heart rate is one of the variable that indicates how well the performance in archery.
The purpose of this study was to analyze the heart rate and accuracy performance of
expert and novice archers in mock tournament, trying to verify if the experience
contributes to a reduction in heart rate and increase the accuracy of archery
performance. 30 UiTM Pahang archers participated in this study, 15 are expert and
another 15 are novice. Before the experimental procedure starts, the participants were
explained about the aim of the study. They were given 3 rounds of sighters (practice
round not counted) and 2 rounds of scoring. The heart rates were taken immediately
after the last arrow of the last round finished. The result shows an expert archers had
a slightly lower heart rate, 116 bts min, in contrast with novice archers with heart rate
of 122 bts min. Expert archers also shoot better with the mean of 107 points
compared to novice archers with 103 points. It is possible the experience of archers
contributes in lowering the heart rate and better accuracy performance in any
situations. |
