Kasagake

While yabusame has been played as a part of formal ceremonies, kasagake has developed as a game or practice of martial arts, focusing on technical elements of horse archery.

In Kamakura period, "the three martial arts of mounted archery" (騎射三物), which are yabusame, kasagake, and inuoumono, were widely practiced by samurai.

Kasagake was inherited just inside the Ogasawara and Takeda family as a part of bowing manners for long years.

In Edo period, under the command of Tokugawa Yoshimune, Ogasawara Tsuneharu revived the three martial arts of mounted archery.

Like yabusame, the archers wear hitatare (直垂, a kind of formal dress for samurai) and mukabaki (行縢).

Kasagake depicted around 1250 in emakimono "Obusuma Saburo ekotoba".
The hat the man wearing is ayaigasa , which was initially used as targets for kasagake.
