• archery PLUS (yes, that’s where the plus comes in!);
• axe throwing;
• star throwing; and
• air rifle shooting.

Your session will include easy-to-understand tuition and all equipment.

Our ArcheryPlus sessions include archery (see more above) and add the ultimate adrenaline rush that comes from throwing stars and axes or aiming an air rifle at your target.

We have a purpose-built throwing wall made of vertically placed pine sleepers for you to throw your axe or star at. It’s superbly satisfying – but don’t just take our word for it, try it for yourself!

And our air rifle activities can be as challenging or easy as is appropriate for your group. So whether you’re a crack shot or a complete novice you’ll have a blast.

Useful Things to Know

People often ask about what to wear, where to park and so…

Here are the answer to the top 5 questions:

1. What should I wear?
Come wearing clothing appropriate to move in and take part in all the activities. High heel shoes aren’t great (the heels sink into the grass) and closed toe shoes are best (in case you drop something on your toes!). Long sleeves are ideal (so the bow strings don’t rub on your arms) and shorts or trousers are easiest for free movement.

2. Where can I park?
Come down the driveway 150 metres and there is a parking bay for 6 cars. If you are part of a large group, some of you may have to park on the street.

3. I have long hair – do I have to tie it up?
Yes, it is much easier for you if you tie long hair back off the face, so it doesn’t get in the way while you’re having fun!

4. Is ArcheryPlus suitable for children?
Our ArcheryPlus sessions are only suitable for those 16 and over. However, our Archery sessions are great for anyone aged 8 to 80 years old. We have had wheelchair-bound participants, children, and those young at heart but in their 7th decade! The activities we offer are very inclusive and suit all shapes, sizes and levels of strength. If you have any special requirements, please feel free to give us a call to discuss.

5. What happens if it rains?
We’re in Marlborough – the weather’s always brilliant here! In all seriousness, we’re fortunate that we very rarely have to cancel due to bad weather. If the weather isn’t looking favourable, we’ll be in touch with you. In the rare situation where we have to cancel due to unfavourable weather we will not charge you for the activities. (If you’ve booked an offsite activity and weather conditions cause a cancellation, a travel charge may apply).
