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.
- For more information on orienteering see www.orienteering.ie – it’s a great site with lots of super images and videos bringing orienteering to life for those of us who are novices!
