In the world of sports, there are those who seek the thrill of competition, pushing boundaries and redefining what it means to excel. For Brandy Von Holten, a former competitive martial artist with dreams of Olympic glory, the journey took an unexpected turn towards the art of mounted archery. 

“Mounted archery found me," she remarks, reflecting on the moment she first tried her hand at shooting from her mule and scored a bullseye. Unwilling to participate in sports with subjective judging, she was drawn to the exhilarating challenge of mounted archery.

Hailing from South Texas and later settling in Missouri, Von Holten’s diverse background and tenacious spirit equipped her for this new endeavor.

"Mounted archery is for the crazy people looking for something different," she explains. "It's about putting your reins down, running, and shooting." From ground-based competitions to specialty shots, mounted archery offers a range of challenges for enthusiasts.
