THE SKILLS

Target Shooting & Equipment Mastery

Instruction focuses on target archery using compound and recurve bows; the full-day format also offers time to learn how to maintain and repair modern equipment so your new skills last.

THE CRAFT

Primitive Bow & Arrow Making

As part of the full-day experience you can opt to make your own primitive bow and arrows, a hands-on workshop that pairs practical craft with shooting practice.

THE WILDERNESS

Tracking and Stealth Skills

Beyond the range, the program may include instruction in animal tracking and stealth — field skills that extend archery into a wilderness context.
