The relation is through the word "toxophilite." "Toxo" is the Greek root for "bow" and "-philite" comes from the Greek "philos" meaning one who loves or a friend. The rough translation of "toxophilite" then becomes "one who loves bows (or Archery)." Toxophilic is then the adjective form of toxophilite (n.). Used in a sentence: That archery tournament was the pennical of my toxophilic dreams.
