Wander Activity: Sagittarium Archery

What is common between Robin Hood, Green Arrow, Hawkeye, and me? Well, in lieu to this post, we are all ‘Archers.’ I may not be as good as them but please allow me to be lined up with them for the sake of this post. LOL

Sagittarium Archery
You only hit what you aim at.

 

It is my childhood dream to hold and shoot a real bow and arrow. I remember those times that I will ask my Mom or Dad to buy me a ‘patpat’ (a long stick usually seen in the school carried by a terror teacher 😀 ) and make it a bow for me. Back then, we can’t afford to go to a class/session that offers archery thus fulfilment of my childhood dream is still far from reality.

After almost two decades, I will now be able to fulfill this dream of mine.

Sagittarium Archery Range which was founded 2015 offers different types of Archery Lessons and Trainings. These are Olympic Style Training, Traditional Style Training, and Moving Target Shooting. They also organize  Archery Tournaments and Team Building Events

Before we start our session, we need to undergo a quick lesson about basic archery. Of all, what is important is the Whistle Commands.

When you hear 2 whistle blows, it means you need to go to the shooting line and ready to fire. A blow means you can now start shooting the arrows. Three blows means hang your bow and retrieve your arrows from the target face then return to waiting line. If you hear 5 or more  blows, it means stop coz there’s an emergency.

Now we are ready to shoot!

Each player has 5 arrows per round.

After an hour of shooting, look at our targets…

Nearly destroyed targets.

Thanks to our coach that day who looked after us and patiently correct our wrongdoings.
