Well, he started me with my first real bow at 5 years old, and the LifeSavers entered the picture at about 38-40 years of age.

He and his buddies used to play a form of golf with those plastic whiffle-ball looking golf balls and a hula hoop. Toss the ball out there, and then, by hitting the grass/ground slightly in front (or to the side, whatever you needed to do) of the ball you could 'jump' the ball around the yard. The object was to get the ball inside the hula hoop on the ground. If you impaled your ball, you forfeited.

ETA: The LifeSaver thing was done with sights and a release aid. Popdigr did things like that shooting instinctive (no sights, shooting with fingers), but that was a long time ago.
