Archery York, Leeds & Harrogate

Yorkshire Archery Days Out in York, Leeds and Harrogate

Come and test your skills at some Archery in York, Leeds & Harrogate

If you fancy taking a shot at archery for a fun-packed day out, then you can happily do so at any of our activity centres across Yorkshire. Whether you’re a complete beginner or are returning to improve your aim, our fully trained instructors will be with you throughout your archery experience to hand out advice as well as arrows.

During your archery activity you’ll gain a great understanding of your very own bow and arrows, and will learn fun facts about this increasingly popular sport.  From crossbows to longbows, you’ll learn all you need to know about mastering this medieval method of mirth.

Whilst archery was, of course, originally used to defend castles and to hunt for prey, you’ll have to settle for defending your honour and hunting for competitive wins, as our instructors take you through a whole host of fun archery based games and challenges.

What To Expect on Archery Day

Are you ready for the best Archery Experience Yorkshire has to offer?

After booking York Archery you will receive a confirmation email with all the details on how to find us and where to park. We have plenty of parking onsite.

We ask that you arrive around 15 minutes before your session. On arrival, you’ll be asked to fill out a quick disclaimer and then be introduced to your instructor. They’ll give you a quick brief on what to expect and how the session will run.

It’s then time to head to the Archery range. If you’re at our Leeds / York location you’ll find the range in our beautiful woodland setting. If you’re at our Harrogate location you’ll be next to the stunning Ripley Lake, both amazing ranges.

We’ll start by showing you how to safely load and shoot the arrows, once mastered we will play a variety of games. These include; Outside In, Capture the Princess, Pin the Tail on the Donkey and Pop / Don’t Pop the balloon.

Don't hesitate to reach out to us if you have any questions about Archery in York, Leeds or Harrogate - the Live For Today customer services team will be more than happy to help you further.

And as always we finish by seeing who can shoot the target off Sue’s head. (Just for peace of mind – Susie is our office mannequin).

Brilliant Fun This was so much fun. We did the more technical course on the larger bikes, splashing thought puddles, bouncing over tree roots and mud. Rich was a brilliant instructor, made the whole experience relaxed and fun. Always great when you do something like this and feel like you’ve had amazing value for money.

Here's Why You Should Try Archery

Archery is a super fun, challenging, and rewarding sport that anyone can enjoy. Here are just a few reasons why you should give it a try!

1. Archery is a great way to relieve stress.

Whether you're at the end of a long day at work or dealing with personal issues, shooting arrows can be a great way to let off some steam. Focusing on your target and letting your arrow fly can help clear your mind and relieve stress.

2. Archery is a great workout.

Did you know that archery works out more than just your arms? In fact, archery is a full-body sport that requires you to use muscles in your back, shoulders, chest, and legs. So not only is it great for your upper body, but it's also a great way to get some cardio in as well!

3. Release your inner Robin Hood or Katniss

Let's be honest, who doesn't want to feel like a badass while shooting arrows? Whether you're inspired by your favorite TV show or movie, or you just have a love for all things medieval, archery is the perfect way to get in touch with your inner warrior.

4. Archery is a great way to bond with family and friends.

Archery is a great activity to do with family and friends. It's a unique way to bond with the people you care about while also having a ton of fun.

5. Archery is a great way to challenge yourself.

Whether you're a competitive person or not, archery can be a great way to push yourself and set goals. There's nothing quite like the feeling of satisfaction when you hit your target dead-on.
