Archery & Crossbows in the New Forest

Ancient meets modern in this ultimate archery experience. This 2.5hr combo session will teach you how to shoot both recurve archery bows and rifle crossbows in beautiful woodland surroundings. Once expertly briefed on both activities, you can then move freely between the ranges, choosing where to spend your time practising new found skills.

Ever wonder how you’d cope in a zombie apocalypse?! Our telescopic scope Rifle Crossbows will give you a fun taster of apocalyptic battle (Ages 12+)

We are very keen on keeping you fully active and shooting for the whole session time, no having to share your go with archery. Increase distance, bow power, have a fun competition and shoot for balloons as your archery skills improve. For more details and videos of our archery experiences, please see our dedicated archery page.

Our crossbow range is run with up to 6 active crossbows for safety reasons, so may require some rotation between the activities you’ve booked. Once the activity briefings are completed, you can then move freely between them.

If you have ages under 12 in your group then they can continue with archery, whilst others free flow between the two ranges. They are in close proximity and always in visual range.

  • The Insight Activities crossbow shooting range is located in rustic private woodland in the New Forest.
  • No previous experience expected or required. Pre-booking is essential. We welcome families, couples, and stag & hen parties.
  • Well behaved furry family members are also welcome as we are 100% dog friendly! Please see our YouTube videos for an idea of what to expect.

"Very knowledgeable and funny!"

My partner and I attended the Medieval Trio course which included archery, crossbow shooting and axe throwing. Glenn, our instructor was awesome, very knowledgeable and funny! We had so much fun, we didn't want to leave. We'll be back very soon, I'm sure.

"Equipment was high quality"

Fantastic morning of archery and axe-throwing - hosted by the brilliant Jeffrey. Loved getting to know more of the history, the logic behind the techniques and to then put it all to the test. Equipment was high quality too. Would thoroughly recommend! 🏹

"Great value for money"

Nothing more to say than excellent, Ken and Charlie the dog were great. We did axe throwing, cross bow and archery. Great instructor, left to do the activities as we felt fit and rotated round for a chance to do all. Great value for money and threw for 2 1/2 hours. Highly recommended.

"What a great day"

What a great day. We did the medieval trilogy with Phil in Dorset. Phil was an absolutely great guy who made each of us feel very welcome and gave us excellent tuition in archery before we had a riot with crossbows and hand axes. Highly recommended!
