| - I got a Groupon deal here and attended the two-for-$30, hour-long introduction lesson. This is definitely one of the better archery places I've been to.
Best part is it's only a 10/15-minute walk from Downsview Station - so, points for accessibility.
The welcoming foyer was clean, well-kept, and nicely lit with natural lighting. This may seem kind of whimsical, but it definitely gave the place a more polished feel (it didn't look like a converted warehouse garage). They even have many lockers, and are adding more!
Of course, who can forget the throne of arrows? You have to see it to believe it.
As for the actual lesson itself - Keiron (sp.?), our teacher, was cool and attentive to detail. Since my friend and I had practiced archery before (like once), the teacher quickly adjusted to our level and we were shooting at moving targets before we knew it.
I'll definitely come back for archery tag sometime. They definitely put a lot of effort in making different games, hosting a variety of events, and even holding archery tag tournaments. The posters and decor are very creative. I wish I'd done the introductory lesson before jumping into archery tag (which was what I did last time, at another place). It's worth the price.
