overview

Your 1 hour session includes an experienced archery instructor and full tuition on the art of using a recurve longbow. Each participant will be taught how to hold a bow, aim and shoot at an official competition size archery target using aluminium shafted arrows.

A series of practice arrows will allow the basics to be mastered before the session moves on to a competition round (usually 9 arrows per person). Most people begin with no experience and can only just get an arrow on target – by the end of the session some impressive scores can be achieved!

Requirements

The laminate maps can be purchased at reception
Participants are shown the answer sheets at the reception desk of the visitor centre on the return of the maps.
Suitable outdoor clothing and footwear are advised.
