Archery, which the Turks practiced as a martial art for centuries, continues today as a sports branch in the international arenas. Studies on arrows and bows, which are materials used in archery, have been carried out, but no study has been found on target feet. In modern and traditional archery, there are target legs made of wooden material, on which the target used is attached. In the study, Bartın University archery club trainings were followed, and it was determined that the target feet in the archery sport were large in size, so they took up too much space in the warehouses and had difficulties in carrying them to the working area. In order to solve the identified problems, interviews were held with the people involved in this sport and the expectations of the athletes from the design to be made for the target leg were determined. Design thinking method was used to identify the problems. As a result, taking into account the problems faced by people who are interested in archery, a functional target leg used in modern archery, which takes up little space in the storage phase, can be easily transported to the area where training and sports competitions are held, and also has a stand attachment for bow and arrow storage, has been designed and produced.
