The Mongolian people's good riding and archery and martial customs are derived from war and hunting. Archery has a long history among the Mongolian people. In the early 13th century, after Genghis Khan unified the Mongolian tribes, archery activities developed rapidly. Archery competitions are called "Suriharibuna" in Mongolian. Sharpshooters enjoy high honors on the grassland. In ancient times, "Morigen" or "-" was often added after the names of warriors. The Mongolian word "Morigen" means sharpshooters. In ancient times, the Mongolian people used ox horn bows, rubber strings, and wooden arrows for archery, with a range of only 10 to 20 meters. Today's bows and arrows have been replaced by steel bows, plastic bows, nylon bows, glass bows, and metal arrows. The target is a "felt target" painted in five different colors. The center of the target is active, and the arrow will fall when it hits the center. There is also a competition in which there is no target, and the target on the ground is shot from dozens of meters away. The target is a pile of real objects in the shape of a tower. The winner is the one who hits the target. The competition is divided into static shooting and horseback shooting. It is usually stipulated that each contestant shoots 4 arrows in 3 rounds, and the winner is determined by the number of times the target is hit. During the competition, the archers wear colorful robes and riding boots. In the static shooting competition, after the referee gives the order, all the archers draw their bows and put their arrows on the bull's eye, and the bull's eye falls off automatically when they hit it, and the audience cheers. Horseback archery is deeply loved by the Mongolian people. It was very popular during the Liao, Jin and Yuan dynasties. Horseback archery activities are held on every major festival. There are hundreds of participants in large-scale horse archery competitions. The competition track is a ditch of 4 meters wide, 85 meters long and 0.66 meters deep. There are 3 targets, 25 meters apart. The first target is a colorful cloth bag about 1 foot square hung on a 2-meter-high woodpile. The three bags are filled with cotton. The first and second targets are on the left side of the archer, and the third target is on the right side of the archer. The competition rules stipulate 1 horse and 3 arrows, that is, each person shoots 3 arrows per round, for a total of 9 arrows. Regardless of gender, age or status, all participants must prepare their own horses and bows and arrows. The style, tension, weight and length of the bows and arrows are not limited. During the competition, the bow is carried on the back, and the 3 arrows are inserted in the quiver behind the back. The horse rides to the riding line; after the referee gives the order, the race begins, and the bow is taken out, the arrow is drawn, and the arrow is shot. Those who fail to shoot 3 arrows in each round are considered the most dishonorable. Archery symbolizes the wit, bravery and wisdom of the Mongolian people, and embodies the heroic and valiant national temperament. It reflects the long history and rich content of the nomadic culture of Gorlos, and is the product of the historical sedimentation of Gorlos. Its inheritance and research will help us understand the development process of many disciplines such as politics, economy, military, production, and culture in Gorlos, and it has strong national and regional characteristics.
