Outdoor Target Archery
Join our friendly instructors at our outdoor Target Range and let them introduce you to Target Archery. Whereas our Woodland Archery is all about the challenge of Field Archery. this session is geared up for the competitive Target Archery. This is a great session to either introduce you to the sport, or to fine tune your skills. From Beginner to Intermediate, come and have a shoot in our woodland setting.
Suitable from age 7yrs, this opens up the fun to the younger would-be archers, enabling the family to shoot together. The targets are traditional FITA (the coloured circles), and we shoot from fixed short distance, enabling you the opportunity to grasp the technique. Groups are slightly larger than the Woodland Archery, however there is still plenty of support and ample shooting time within the 60min session.
All sessions include full equipment, tuition and insurance.
After a quick but thorough safety brief, our fully qualified Archery Instructors will teach you the basics of target archery. It won't be long before you are in the centre gold and showing Robin Hood a thing or two! This is a great session for kids, family and the perfect introduction to the sport of Target Archery whilst being in the peaceful woodland setting.

Please read for important extra information.
Our sessions consist of small groups, please remember other people may be waiting for you to arrive so we can start the session. Do contact us if you expect to be late! More than 15 minutes, without contact, and we will release the instructors back into the wild and you will be unable to participate.
Safety is paramount, so please ensure long hair is tied back, loose jewellery/scarves tucked in/removed, closed toe shoes are worn. We recommend wearing lightweight layers, long sleeves, sunscreen on warmer days and insect repellant. A showerproof jacket is also very handy (all year round!). During lighter showers we work around them and shoot through, however, torrential downpour/storms are dangerous, and we may be forced to cancel with full refund.
We do not allow anyone under 18yrs to participate on their own, another person must participate with them, this can be another child. A parent/carer/responsible adult must stay during the entire session, even if they are not participating. We have undercover picnic benches located close to the Target Range which you are welcome to use, whilst waiting for your budding archer.
We are inclusive, promoting and supporting Accessibility to All. However, to maximise your enjoyment of the session, it is really important to tell us during the booking process if anyone has any additional support/health support requirements. We have strict ratios in place, and specially trained Archery Instructors that can ensure you all have the absolute best time ever!
It is always sad when you have to cancel, and we totally understand that these things happen. We would prefer to try and find you a new date rather than fully cancel, however, that too can sometimes be tricky if you are limited to time.
If you need to cancel, or reduce the number of booked participants in your group, up to 48 hours before the start of your booked session, we will refund any money paid to us for that participant/group.
If you need to cancel, or reduce the number of booked participants in your group, within 48 hours of the start time of your booked session, we will refund 50% of any money paid to us for that participant/group.
If you do not turn up for your booked session, and we have not had any contact from you, we will not refund any money paid to us.
