Archery

Originally set up as an evening past time for staff, this activity has become a guest favorite with the creation of our jungle archery range, made entirely of natural and recycled materials!

We have got 20 and 45 pound bows, which means that kids as young as 8 can join in the fun, along with 10 meter, 20 meter and even 30 meter targets so that experienced adults can enjoy themselves too!

Starting with a safety brief, participants will get taught the basics of how to put a recurve bow together, string it, and what equipment will be used while firing the bow

After a short walk through the jungle to our archery range, participants will be taught how to position their bodies properly to align arrow with target, what stance to take with the bow, and correct arm position.

Participants will then be given the chance to fire their first volley of arrows at the 10m target. The instructor will then tweak their techniques as necessary Once proficient at hitting the 10m target, students will move on to the 20m and finally the 30m.

Participants will then learn how to care for the bow, how to destring and collect arrows as necessary.
