Discover the basics of target archery! Learn technique and form using recurve and compound bows from our USA Archery-certified instructors. Equipment, safety and elements of shooting are covered. No experience necessary – take this introductory course to be eligible for the HCRP Target Archery Skills Club and/or use HCRP equipment during Open Range time.
Have a group or considering enrolling two or three new archers? A Friends & Family Adventure will save you money and is more flexible with different age groups! These small group & family lessons can meet the introductory requirement for future HCRP target archery programs. One 90-min target archery Friends & Family Adventure is $135 for up to three participants (add another archer or two for $25 each).
