Next Laois Archery Shoot
Saturday 13th of December
Fun Shoot – Darkness, Marked Distances, Two Arrow Round (1 x 18)
Yup – you read that right!
We’re hosting a night shoot in our woods! It’s been on the bucket list for a while, and we’ve decided with 10 years under our belt, it’s time to stop dreaming about it and just do it. Obviously, this is a fun shoot round. There’s no records or anything, we’re just doing this to try something new and fun.
There’s a pre-registration link below, and this time, it’s actually mandatory. For obvious reasons, we’re being very cautious with health & safety for this one. It’s essential we have advanced notice of everyone who wants to come, so that we can make any adjustments we have to while we can still see.
We’ll be holding registration/check-in from 5pm and shooting from 6pm sharp, so it’ll be good and dark before we get going. Make sure you have warm clothes and a decent torch with you!
Same as always folks, there’s no camping at the woods, so you’ll have to make other arrangements if you’re looking to stay the night. However, we have recently gotten the parking area re-gravelled, so there’s plenty of space for cars with a much lower risk of mud!
Unlike always – this shoot is restricted to those over the age of 13 only! Cubs and Beavers should stay home tucked up in their beds.
Fees:
Adult: €10
Child: €5
We’ve actually gotten ourselves a little card reader, so we accept all forms of payment. We can even accept pre-payment now, so if you’re looking for that just contact us and we can send you a link.
Facilities:
Toilets on site
Tea, coffee, and biscuits provided, but please bring a travel mug if possible!
