EVENTS
Thinking about doing something different for a special event? Need something exciting for a corporate team building day? What could be more immersive than historically inspired activities..
Have-A-Go Archery
Suitable for any event have-a-go archery is an exciting and popular addition to any event.
We can tailor the experience to suit you, your clients or the topography. The type of range, targets and activities are flexible and can be tailored to suit the participants skill level and the tone of the event that you are hosting.
We cover a number of Historical Periods from Roman through to Tudor as well as modern forms of archery.

Archery Experiences
Our archery experience sessions are ideal for those wishing to delve a little deeper into archery. With in depth tuition, activities and games tailored to suit the event it is ideal for group activities such as corporate events, team building, birthdays or stag and hen parties as well as forming the core of our pre booked sessions for heritage events or medieval faires.
Session length is flexible but 3 hrs is ideal allowing enough time to learn at a leisurely pace and pack plenty of different activities in. Sessions can be held at a location of your choosing or at one our secluded locations in West Sussex.
Sessions are bespoke so we can structure them to suit the event but usually they will follow this basic format.
- An Introduction to the session and safety brief
- Basic instruction and target shooting
- Move to more challenging targets
- Apply skill to competition
- Conclusion.
Within that format and dependant on location we can explore target archery, both historic and modern, field archery, clout shooting and marks shooting. We can theme it around sport, Hunting or warfare and if required certificates or prizes can be awarded. It may also be possible to include falconry, again, if the location is suitable.
Contact us for further details or to book Red Fox for your event.
