I attended Archery Day in early December with the Arizona Game and Fish Department and I really enjoyed it. For my birthday, I wanted to go shoot archery for a bit and my boss found this place in Chandler that offers individual and group classes, which was perfect because my staff needed a few tips before letting loose all Hunger Games style on the targets!
Brett, the manager, gave us a crash course in safety and helped us select either a compound or recurve bow. He made some adjustments to the bows to fit each one of us and he watched our form to make sure we on the right path to hitting some bullseyes! It was fun to see who turned out to be pretty decent archers! I still need some practice, but my boss and co-worker were both improving and hit the gold (bullseye) many times.
Toward the end of our session, Brett has us play a game of "HORSE" with the word ARROW, and so we tried to match each others shots, calling the shots from across the room, diagonal and from a really far distance. It ended in a shoot out with me and a friend. It was really fun and I'd like to sign up for more archery classes with Brett! Thanks!
