USER SENARIOS
NAME: Sasa
AGE: 26
Occupation:
Boss of a archery venue
It is really hard to teach a new man to learn archery. They always need at least 3 hour practice to shoot on target.
At the same time, I have to look after them all the time. Otherwise they are really easy to hurt them.

Occupation:
Student
I really like the sport, everytime I shoot at the center of target, it makes me feel really good.
However, I have to spend 5 hours per week on practicing. The movement, position, and strength. Every part is a hard thing to do, and every time I start aim at target, I need to think about all steps.
