A Different Kind of Archery Environment

Most people who come here are looking for more than just a place to shoot arrows.

Some want to compete. Some want to improve their focus and confidence. Some simply enjoy the challenge and relaxation that archery provides. Many of our students have been with us for years because of the supportive and welcoming community that has grown around the range.

Our students range from 6 to over 80 years old, with many adults discovering archery for the very first time.

Whether you are completely new to the sport or already competing, we try to make archery approachable, understandable, and enjoyable.

Nocking Point Archers' Club Memorial Day Picnic Canceled

The Nocking Point Archery Club Memorial Day Picnic will be canceled this year due to John Siebert’s ongoing health issues and chemotherapy treatments.

The good news is that John is on the road toward recovery, but he still will not be physically able to handle the setup and coordination needed to run this year’s picnic. Our plan is to bring the tradition back in 2027 when things are back to normal at the range and with John’s health.

We apologize for the late notice. Those of you who are club and range members know how challenging the past year has been for John and his family, and we truly appreciate everyone’s understanding, support, and patience through it all.

We look forward to seeing everyone back together next year.

Kids & Archery ...

Archery plays prominent roles in movies, TV shows and video games. Kids routinely see superheroes and Disney princesses shooting archery. They imagine themselves as Katniss, Merida and Hawkeye, and many ask parents if they can try the sport. Kids will think it's cool to shoot. Bows are featured in their video games after all! If archery intrigues your child, maybe it is time to sign him/her up for introductory lessons.

Archery is a great introductory sport for anyone of any age or skill. Many athletes shoot archery without having played other sports or honed any athletic skills. That makes it appropriate for any age. Archers must only focus on their form, not their individual strength or stamina. In addition, archery tournaments have age divisions for all kids who enjoy competing, so they can take their archery passions from the range to the tournament stage whenever they like.

• Archery is the oldest sport still practiced today, and while the equipment has changed, archery basics is remarkably unchanged.
• Archery gets your kids outside away from their phones/tablets where they can soak in that vitamin D and fresh air.

• Archery will strengthen your kids' confidence by giving them a skill that they can steadily improve upon.

• Archery can also be a great way for kids to develop new relationships like friendships with people of all ages and coaching relationships.
• As a parent if you shoot archery as well, then you and your kids can bond more by being coached together.

Maybe archery is the solution you've been looking for. Ohio Archery Center can provide your child with the structured program that will improve his/her skills, focus and self-esteem. Today is the day to sign up for lessons. No equipment is required.
