2-hour instructional sessions for outdoor archery and axe throwing! This program is available for ages 6+ and is not restricted to youth! We have had adult groups come out and have a great time! Perfect for a family night out, or company team building sessions!
Our experienced staff will teach you axe throwing and beginner archery using traditional recurve bows. After your 2-hour booking your group can enjoy a camp fire (provided).
