You will be surprised at the ease with which you become proficient in shooting the clay targets out of the sky, even when they are propelled into the air from different directions at quicker intervals. Archery Discover this ancient art that conjures up images of William Tell, the Roman Empire and Scottish highlanders. Archers of yesteryear used rudimentary equipment whereas today the equipment is more modern and sophisticated. Archery is about muscle discipline, eye dominance, and accuracy. Target practise makes perfect or so the experts say. DrummingFor centuries drumming has formed part of the African culture. Rituals, celebrations, funerals, healing and initiation ceremonies are marked by the rhythmic beat of drums. Music is the universal language, and drumming is the bridge between spectator and participant. It's primal, heartfelt pulse stirs the senses, making your foot tap in time to the beat. Anyone can be a competent drummer with almost no prior experience. Golf Sun City has two incredible world-class golf courses set against the rugged backdrop of the Pilanesburg mountains.
