Field Archery Experience in Hiroshima, Japan

This was the highlight of my Hiroshima trip. All of the staff were awesome and the owner made me feel very welcome. I was tutored by Ashley, an awesome instructor, great conversationalist and all around great guy. He made sure to convey the theories and reasons behind why we they shoot arrows the way they do. As I shot, I could feel myself becoming more present which was a surprisingly meditative experience. It was fulfilling seeing my skills improve throughout the day, to the point I felt confident taking on the mountain course. This is a standout experience of this venue, I felt like I was in Ghost of Tsushima, soaking in the views of the valley while shooting arrows through the mountains. The venue is also in a gorgeous location, taking you through some of the local towns and winding roads of Hiroshima. Overall, this was a 10/10 experience and I will definitely be back.

Set the countryside, in a forest with a crystal clear river running through it, it really is a picturesque spot. Upon arrival your instructor gives you an introduction to the bow and the facilities. My instructor was Nick who was knowledge and encouraging. Then it’s time for some practice in the field range. Once you’ve got the hang of things it’s off to meander through the forest hitting targets dotted about. Then once you’ve worked up an appetite it’s time for the bbq again in the forest. After lunch it’s back to the field range for a bit more archery. If you arrive by public transport they’ll even pick you up.

Wonderful atmosphere, staff, and equipment! We had a great time, learned a lot, and look forward to doing more archery after our holiday.

I made a last minute visit up there yesterday from Hiroshima, had a great time! Really good facility, knowledgable and friendly instruction, good equipment. I’d highly recommend it to anyone visiting the area! It’s a short trek from Hiroshima, but the public transport is easy and very reliable - i took the train from Hiroshima station, then the #13 bus from MiyauchiKushido.

It was my first time in archery, but he taught me from the basics, so I hit the center of the target! He taught me the habits of the body and tips each time. It's difficult, but it's fun! After getting some hits, we went to the mountain field. For the sake of explaining the rules, only the first target was accompanied by a coach, but after the second one, we went around on our own. The mountains are quiet, and you can hear the murmur of the streams and the birdsong as you move through the very pleasant environment. I feel like I'm huntering in the mountains ^ ^ It's a course with ups and downs, so I'm going to rest. Shoes should be sneakers. They made sure that I could enjoy it to the fullest after the field course. The coaches and other staff at the facility were very friendly and friendly, and I enjoyed learning. If you are new to archery, we Recommendation that you try it out here! You can enjoy it with peace of mind! It's far away, so don't do it right away, but I'd like to come again ^ ^

A great experience for someone who has never held a bow before. The hosts were friendly, helpful and were genuine in wanting to see us do well. The boss even came down to help, top bloke. The course was a fun little hike into some pretty areas. The food after was a great way to relax and was very tasty. Special shout-out to Nick who went above and beyond. Could not recommend more
