Major target archery competitions are conducted outdoors and rarely pause due to inclement weather. The impact of the atmosphere on both the equipment and the archer is a very important consideration, affecting the arrow in free flight and the archer`s aim. This article provides a survey of research covering the arrow`s initial conditions as it enters its free flight phase, its behaviour during free flight including wind drift and the effects of wind on the archer`s aim. Potential areas for further investigation are highlighted.
