I recently visited Archery Oasis on a lazy Sunday when I was bored, and it turned out to be such a uniquely personalized and memorable experience. Nestled in the peaceful surroundings of Los Altos Hills, the setting itself already makes you feel relaxed and focused while enjoying some sunshine. What truly stood out to me was how warm and attentive the coaches were. From the moment I arrived, they made sure I felt comfortable, guided me patiently through the basics, and offered thoughtful tips that actually helped improve my form. One of the Coaches was so funny , I enjoyed my interaction while hitting the bull's eye. It didn't feel rushed or transactional at all-instead, it felt like they genuinely cared about making the experience enjoyable and meaningful. One small but incredibly kind gesture that really stuck with me was that they let me continue practicing for a few extra minutes beyond my session. That level of thoughtfulness and flexibility made the whole experience feel even more special. Whether you're a complete beginner or just looking to try something new, I'd highly recommend this place. It's not just about archery-it's about the experience, the people, and the positive energy they create. I'm definitely looking forward to going back! read more

We came here for a team-building event, and it was such a great experience! The coaches were all extremely friendly, patient, and professional. They gave clear guidance and made sure everyone felt comfortable, even those of us who were trying archery for the first time. At the end, we had a friendly competition, which made the whole experience even more fun and memorable. The medals they award are super creative -- the center has a little rotating target symbol! It's such a cool and thoughtful keepsake. Overall, this place is fantastic. Highly recommend for groups, team events, or anyone who wants to try archery in a welcoming and well-run environment. read more

This was such a fun time! We came here to celebrate my friend's birthday. I've done archery before but only once and this renewed my interest in it and I am going to look into lessons now! It was great fun and Hameed was especially wonderful with my 4 year old and our friend's 5 year old. Great with kids, great fun relaxing day! read more

Great place with an amazing instructor! He has all the right tools and allows you the freedom to practice and warm up. No pressure, just fun! read more

A great place for parties and corporate events! I brought my research group (~20 people) here for a team bonding. The area is quite beautiful, and Hameed is a terrific archery instructor, as well as a funny and entertaining guy! For most of us, this was our first experience shooting a bow and arrow, but he provided a very concise and general overview of basic technique while also giving us all individual guidance as needed. And he even brought some fun games and competition into the mix! I definitely recommend staying for around 2 hours, and if you can, ask Hameed to try shooting a flu-flu. The only annoying thing is the bugs, so don't forget bug spray. Will make the experience 10x better. read more

Amazing first time archery lesson here! Lots of attention from the great instructor and highly individualized.

Will be coming here again! read more

Hameed is such a great person to be around--funny and a little bit quirky with so much positive energy. He really helped to make the experience fun, relaxing, and enjoyable. Our family took a first group class with him since we were all beginners. It's nice that all the equipment is provided. The range, bows, and arrows are all well-maintained. We always felt safe and received the right amount of attention. Hameed is also great with the kids. Our 7 year old daughter had so much fun using a smaller kid-sized bow and firing real arrows at different targets. We definitely recommend Archer's Oasis for anyone new to archery and for kids, too! read more

Took an archery lesson with a few of my school mates and it was a beautiful day out. Hameed provided us with the bows and arrows and took his time teaching us. He is very passionate about his work and it shows. He explained form, technique, and gave constructive criticism when appropriate. If you've never done archery before, this is a great spot to get started. It's good for groups and is a great activity to slow down and relax. Thank you ! read more

Hameed is so sweet and kind. He makes archery feel like a community. And he is a great teacher. I really enjoyed getting regular lessons with him. I definitely recommend this place to take lessons. It's also nice because its one of the few places that you can shoot outside in nature read more

Novice archer, just starting. Dropped in to check out range. It was very clean and neat. It was partially shaded too! The gentleman instructor was so kind with my daughter who has autism. He got down on her level and showed her how to use a slingshot. She was so excited. Thank you so much!! We will definitely be coming back for lessons ! read more

Today, my partner and I had our first archery lesson by Hameed, who is outstanding in all respects. Hameed is professional and detail-oriented, yet calm and reassuring. After the general introduction, care is taken to observe each person and give them recommendations to improve. Hameed has a great variety of equipment. As we improved, new challenges were presented: sequences of balloons to hit, or moving farther away from the target. There was no small talk: we were all focused on archery. We shot at Hidden Villa, so afterwards we walked over to visit the farm and go hiking. All around a beautiful area. read more

Hammed is the best coach ever!! I am always scared to learn how to do archery, but finding the right mentor could help me build up confidence and fun. He will always show you some crazy fun way to do archery. And it brings you a lot of joy! And make this journey special and unique!!!! read more

My 14-year-old daughter has been taking archery from Hameed for a few months now. He makes it welcoming and fun and doesn't push her to be competitive. He also has shown us how meditative archery can be, which is great as we're normally always rushing around. It forces us to be more calm and present. I also love that it's outdoors! I highly recommend Hameed and Archers Oasis!! read more

Hameed at Archers Oasis is an amazing instructor! He taught my daughter how to use the bow and arrow within a couple minutes several weeks ago. We booked some classes and had a wonderful day with our family today. I highly recommend him as an archery instructor. I personally hadn't used a bow and arrow in over 30 years, and with his instructions I was right back at it again! I really look forward to going again, it was a ton of fun! read more

My 9yo old and I had our first lesson (beginners) with Hameed today and it was great, we've already booked the next session! Hameed's approach was great, especially for the kiddo, he's very patient, it was interactive and fun. But more importantly, he was really paying attention to little details and noticed my kiddo should draw left despite being right handed and it was indeed better for him! It's great for beginners that he has so much gear available for the lessons so that you can try different bows and see what works best. He's also very responsive which was great as I was looking for lessons in the area and only had one other response. We're definitely looking forward to the next session! read more

Went here for team morale event, coaches are super accommodating with our large group size (23 people), we were advised carefully for the bow that worked best for us, safety practice, and there's also fun competition for medals. Parking is also accessible, pet friendly. Highly recommend this for outdoor team building! read more

I came here with a group of 6 adults for a birthday party and had an amazing time! Hameed is extremely knowledgeable and was an amazing instructor. He demonstrated the mechanics with ease and created different challenges for us to try. Hameed even had us in a competition winning medals for placing 1st, 2nd, and 3rd towards the end. My party ended up staying for almost 3hrs because we just couldn't get enough! Thanks again Hameed and hoping to come out again! read more

Hameed (instructor) was wonderful! My siblings and I have never done archery before but it has always sparked our interest from the movies, shows or videos we watch! This time, we finally had the chance to take a beginners lesson with Hameed and it was definitely one of the best decisions we've made! We registered super last minute but Hameed was super nice about it and texted me alot of details regarding the meet up place and parking information (free btw! Free parking a plus in the bay area). During the lesson, Hameed was super funny, easy going, and encouraging. He taught us everything we needed to know and a bit more too! He made it super memorable. We will definitely be going back to him again and hopefully adopt archery as our forever hobby. read more

Highly recommend for any beginner or any one who is interested in trying out archery. Hameed is super passionate, organized and detailed. He goes through every little detail there is in the sport. It is a best team outing option out there! read more

My girlfriend and I first connected with an instructor at Bowhunters Unlimited who was very unprofessional. She was very unresponsive to texts and then tried to get us to reschedule our lesson last minute, so we decided to go elsewhere and found Hameed. He was very responsive to our messages and we had a great time learning from him! We were both complete beginners. He simplified the learning process for us and had us compete against each other in fun games. As an instructor myself (tennis), it was easy for me to see how passionate Hameed was about archery and bringing it into the lives of others. read more

What a great experience! Coach Hameed is wonderful -- he's extremely knowledgeable, patient and has a great sense of humor. While arranging our event, he was very responsive and easy to communicate with. We chose the Los Altos Hills location which is beautiful and on the grounds of Hidden Villa. During our time there, he showed us correct form, helped us improve our accuracy, kept our group engaged with various challenges, and made our time at Archers Oasis very relaxed and enjoyable.

Incredible instructor and amazing experience! Went for valentines weekend with a group of friends and everyone thoroughly enjoyed themselves. Technique was easy to pick up with professional guidance. The environment was serene and memorable. Will be returning soon! read more

After looking around for an archery teacher, finally found one. Hammed has 20+ years of experience, is patient, and loves teaching.

Had an absolute blast at a recent event with Archers Oasis! Our instructor Hameed was super attentive. He covered all the basics, coached us throughout, and gave us a toooon of activities to test our Katniss skills. By the end, I felt like Legolas minus the pointy ears. Highly recommend. Would arrow again. read more

My son has taken 3 lessons and has benefitted greatly from the experience. Highly recommended.

Very kind and interactive instructor. I went from having 0 archery experience to feeling like I knew what I was doing! I also learned I was left eye dominate from him, which after learning helped my aim significantly. He instructed me through how to correct my shot, while also helping the other 12 people with me. Managed a big group with ease. Very fun! read more
