Are you looking to get started in archery? Most clubs will require you to have completed a Beginners’ Course before allowing you to join. Perfect Aim Archery can help with that!
Our courses comply with Archery GB specifications and are run by experienced Archery GB coaches/instructors. You will learn about the rules of shooting, range etiquette, safety, equipment, shooting technique in both barebow and freestyle (Olympic style recurve), scoring and range layout. You’ll also have a lot of fun! The course is one day, 10am – 4:30pm so you get a lot of shooting time in!
We only have small groups on our courses, which means you will get lots of shooting time in and have a bespoke experience. Special discount rate available for family groups consisting of 2 adults and 2 children.

I recently attended a full day Beginners’ Course with Perfect Aim Archery, and it was a fantastic experience! Carlie and Chris taught us so much, and with a small class they had plenty of time to coach each of us to improve techniques massively over the course of the day. With my course certificate I was able to join an archery club, and I’m very much looking forward to continuing in the sport! Ollie S





Took a beginners course with my son. The instructor Carlie, was fab – paced the day really well… gave great one to one attention to everyone, adjusting for skills and abilities – and maintained a safe (everyone was handling weapons!) learning environment 😄 Paul H










Completed an all day beginners course with my 13 year old. Had a very enjoyable day. Small group allowing for lots of 1-2-1 assistance and lots of shooting in a relaxed and fun environment. Barry S

Very enjoyable day on the beginners course with Perfect Aim Archery. Our instructor, Carlie, was excellent, very supportive and gave us loads of information regarding equipment, shooting, safety and club membership etc. Got lots of shooting in with different techniques. Will be buying kit soon and probably joining a club in late summer or early autumn. Highly recommended to any first time amateur archers like myself. Stephen M


Highly recommended. Amazing full day beginners course. Well organised, great pacing, great equipment and space. Carlie and Carl were fabulous; patient, professional and knowledgeable. I’m totally hooked – definitely going to join an Archery club now 🙂 Adrian D


Simply put – a wonderful beginners course that’s highly recommended.
Less-simply put – both Carlie and Carl turned the whole experience into a much more enjoyable day than I had anticipated. They were enthusiastic and very knowledgeable, coaching the group very effectively so that we were all sufficiently competent by the end of the day. Included within the course was an explanation of the various kit we would need to start with, recommendations on where to source it, and a demonstration of their own equipment. I was very fortunate to find Perfect Aim Archery and would highly recommend you get in touch with them. Mark H
