Yes, this session is designed specifically with beginners in mind. The structure starts with the very basics, including how to safely handle the bow and arrow, how to stand, aim, and shoot. You won’t need to know anything in advance, and all instructions are clearly demonstrated and reinforced with personal support during the session. Instructors are patient and experienced with first-timers, making sure everyone is progressing comfortably and having fun. The small group size means there’s plenty of opportunity for individual feedback and help if you’re struggling with anything. ### What happens if it rains or the weather is poor on the day? Archery sessions go ahead in most weather conditions, including light rain or cooler temperatures. Participants are advised to bring a waterproof jacket and dress in layers to stay warm and comfortable. The grassy field is well-maintained, but appropriate footwear is also recommended in case of damp ground. If conditions are unsafe — such as high winds or thunderstorms — the session may be postponed or rescheduled. The team will get in touch in advance where possible to offer alternative options or dates. Cancellations due to extreme weather are rare but handled with flexibility. ### Can I book this as a private session for a group or special occasion? Yes, private sessions are available and can be tailored for birthdays, stag and hen groups, school groups, or corporate team-building events. The session format can be adjusted to include more games or light competition depending on the group and occasion. It’s recommended to enquire early if you have a particular date in mind, especially for larger groups. The instructors are used to working with different types of groups and will adapt the session to make sure it’s inclusive and enjoyable for everyone involved. ### What kind of equipment is used, and will it be suitable for children or smaller adults? The session uses modern recurve bows which are well suited to beginners. All equipment is provided and adjusted on-site to fit different arm lengths, strengths, and comfort levels. Arm guards and all safety gear are also included to make sure each person is set up correctly. For children or smaller adults, instructors will ensure the bow draw strength and size are appropriate so that they can shoot comfortably and safely. Equipment setup is part of the first section of the session, and instructors will be on hand to make any tweaks if needed throughout. ### Where exactly do we meet, and is there parking available? You’ll meet directly at Broughton Primary School, where the archery range is set up on the school’s athletic fields. Staff will be on site to welcome you and guide you to the right area. Signage or instructions may also be provided in advance. There is free parking available nearby, either within the school grounds or in surrounding on-street areas, depending on the time and day. The location is easy to reach by car from Peebles, Biggar, or Edinburgh, and the village itself is quiet and easy to navigate. ### Is equipment provided? Yes, all bows, arrows, targets, and safety gear are included. ## Media - **Primary image URL (resolved in app; may be absolute)**: https://adventuro.com/wp-content/uploads/2025/04/20220824_120446.jpg - **Gallery image count**: 3 ## Limitations - Availability, exact session times, and final price may depend on the live booking flow. - This Markdown is generated from the same catalog fields as the public HTML page at the canonical URL above.
