Shooting in the field requires 2 adults for safety reasons.

Not a problem. Once you have finished a beginner course and have joined us, you will get access to club equipment to use until you are happy to get your own bow. The club has a variety of different sized / poundage recurve bows, with arrows, available for members to use and try until the time you are ready to make your purchase on a bow that is made for you.
