What Can I Expect
We are offering vouchers for 1 to 8 people to try archery in Warwick. It's a great set up, with over 100 acres to play in and excellent on-site facilities too. There's loads of free parking, a log cabin welcome centre and the stables housing toilets and showers, with a warm and welcoming club house.
Matt, Steve and their team of dedicated instructors are there to make sure you have a fun time, whilst being safe at all times. You'll be heading to the purpose-built outdoor archery range in a quiet corner of the site for you one-hour lesson in the art of the bows and the arrows.
Each of you will be kitted out with the necessary protective gear and a bow to suit your stature. You'll be using modern recurve longbows for these experiences. After a run through the safety elements, the first step is to learn how to pick up and hold your bow, how to load (or 'knock') your arrows and how to stand facing the targets.
You'll be shooting at traditional roundel targets. Don't be surprised if at first your arrows go whizzing way past or flop unceremoniously on the floor a couple of metres in front of you. After a few shots you'll be getting the hang of this archery malarky and hearing the thud as your arrows landing solidly in the target.
The instructors here at Warwick are patient, friendly and personable, so you'll all have fun learning archery. To round off your session, you'll take part in a little competition to see who amongst your archer friends is the hot-shot of the day. Nothing serious, but a great way to conclude your experience.
This Warwick archery venue is open all year round offering a variety of outdoor activities including these archery lessons. They are great value for money and are a superb choice for small groups of up to 12 to have a go archery together in the Warwickshire countryside.
