Under cover Archery (Thranduil package)

Under cover Archery set up, named the Thranduil package comprises of the targets(3 max) set up in a line at one end of a giant 8x4m heavy duty pop-up tent with safety backstop netting behind and to each side to catch any stray arrows. A marked out shooting line at the opposite end of the tent. Suitable bows and arrows will be provided to each archer at the line. The back and sides sport our branded banners which help with cold crosswinds and provide extra shade when hot. Two 6m tall branded flags fly high each side of the entrance. If its dark we will provide lighting. We can also provide background music or sound effects for a little extra atmospheric depth. This is our premium archery set up. The targets are limited to 3 due to the width of the tent. However by adding a second tent we can provide an 8x8m covered area with up to 6 targets!! Score cards, tutoring and a legendary experience come as standard. 

2-3 targets up to a max of 30 Archers per tent. Please contact us if you require more targets for a larger army. We will always seek to meet your needs.

Archery has been a part of our heritage for an age. Used for hunting and battle it proved to be a highly effective weapon. Although we don't practice this anymore(at least here in England) we do still love a bit of stick flinging. Drawing that bow, taking aim, loose the arrow and hitting that bullseye is just so satisfying and rewarding. The targets we use are layered foam Egertec bosses. As much as we would love to use the round straw bosses fo their aesthetics we chose to go with the foam for a few reasons, but mostly because they are far more resistant to wet weather. They are also suitable for higher(adult) and lower(junior) power bows which makes them an ideal choice for us as we cater for individuals 8 years and over, all genders and abilities. We provide new target faces for every booking and anchor down the bosses for safety. The bows we supply are ambidextrous so they are suited to RH and LH archers. We have adult size and also junior size bows. We don't use stabilisers or sights etc on our bows. Its far more fun to do it the traditional way and use our instincts to find that perfect shot. We supply various target faces for the games. Usually start with a large face with a large bullseye then gradually get smaller. This will act as if the targets are getting moved further away and also set new goals and boost that determination to get back into that gold circle. Friendly competition is always encouraged here at Axes & Arrows. We would need to arrive 90 minutes prior to the start time to set up.
