superb training and teacher who was excellent, entertaining and very knowledgeable. would absolutely recommend to anyone.
Rosie W
Really enjoyed a day's long bow experience with Now Strike.
I was in a group of about a dozen fellow archers. The tuition was good and we had plenty of chance to shoot, in several different formats , all interspersed with a graphic account of a famous historic battle.
I would definitely recommend it and indeed I would like to return.
The staff at Into the Blue were very helpful and friendly and i'd also use them again.
Daniel
