The property is large and mostly outdoors. They do have a small indoor range area that reminded me of a gym, but, I prefer the outdoor archery range over indoor. They do have more info on their website if you're interested in becoming a member. I'm thinking of joining this summer and their fees seem reasonable. They do offer two kinds of memberships. First is a working member, helping with range upkeep and tournaments as payment. Option two is an associate member, paying a fee for unlimited use of the range.

For our weekend road trip down south, we wanted to try something different besides tandem…read moreparagliding and good food. We found Performance Archery and their 1-hour intro lesson for $40 per person. Pretty fair deal. Me, my wife, and both our boys all tried compound bows. It was a tiring but fun afternoon. The next day, me and my wife definitely felt some muscles we do not use often. LOL. Our instructor, Todd, was very helpful and encouraging. He explained what we, as complete newbies, needed to know without making it confusing. Safety, stance, how to hold the bow, how to aim, and how to release. Just enough to get us started and actually enjoy it. He also gave a lot of praise to my youngest son, who showed some real potential. It was his first time ever shooting a bow, and he hit yellow at 10 yards. Beginner's luck? Maybe once. But he kept hitting yellow again and again. Because of that, I asked my youngest, who is 15, if he wanted to continue with archery and see where it goes. He said yes, so we ended up getting him a package that should last him a few years: an Elite Archery Basin RTS, a release, arrows, and a bag. He was super happy. The staff was also very helpful in setting up the bow for him. They adjusted the draw length, draw weight, and peep sight, and made sure it fit him properly. The only sad part is that this place is far from home. I checked Yelp reviews for places closer to us, and honestly, they do not look as encouraging. Overall, this was a really good afternoon. For $40 per person, the intro lesson was worth it. Fun, educational, beginner-friendly, and maybe even the start of a new hobby for my son.

I have had nothing but bad experiences with Performance Archery. I've paid for multiple setup fees…read moreand my bow's are never in tuned correctly or setup to my liking. If they tune my bow and I come back bc it's out of tune they charge me again!!! Recently my Mathews Title needed new limbs on a warranty claim bc of a weak limb. Very important!!!! The shop I'm loyal to, Bow N Arrow shop because they always does fantastic work on my bow. They NEVER overcharge me either!!! If I get a set of strings installed there they will NEVER charge me for tuneups on the life of that string set!!!!!! I brought my bow to my technician. My bow tech gave me a video and showed me why I 100% had a weak limb. The cam lean in My bottom cam was so bad it was rubbing the inside of the left side of my yoke on my new string set! Everyone at the shop was in agreement that this was warranty claim due to a weak limb issue. Since Bow n Arrow is not authorized Mathews dealers, I took my bow to Performance Archery for them to start the warranty claim. They asked if they could touch my bow (no mention of a charge and I'm in there for a warranty claim!) but I agree. They take my bow to the back and all four technicians there agree it is not a Cam lean issue or a weak limb issue and that it is ai ply a top hat issue. They proceeded to flip my top hats, so that there was only 1 mm of clearance from the Yoke cable from the Cam and did not fix the Cam lean at all. Matter of fact the problem was 100% still apparent and they let me leave and made me pay!!!! They looked me straight in my face and told me that Mathews is amazing with doing warranty claims! That all it takes is making the request and that it's easy, and then they did not do the warranty claim for me and gave me excuses and did not fix the problem. And charged me! The next day I took my bow back to my Bow technician at Bow N Arrow Shop showed them what they did and what they charged me for! They said it was completely I appropriate and they told me that the same problem was still an issue and that whatever they did didn't fix anything!! They also tone me I still can't shoot my bow. So then I was told by my Bow technician to call Bret at Willow Creek Archery.. Bret is Is amazing! I told him what I was going on, what I had been through and he immediately agreed that it was a week limb issue over the phone!!!!!! I sent him the video of my Bow on the bow draw board at the Bow N Arrow Shop showing the problem and diagnosing the weak limb issue and stating it was a warranty claim 100%. Unlike Performance Archery, He immediately got a hold of Mathews sent them my information and immediately was approved for a brand new set of limbs! Imagine that!!! The point is, Performance Archery does shawty rushed work on bows that they tune. They misdiagnosed and negate responsibility for obvious warranty claims. I could've derailed my cables and needed another new $200 string set. That's how bad it was. They charged me for a full set up fee and my bow is completely out of tune and I was still left with the same problem. Insult to injury! Bottom line: Go to Bow N Arrow Shop! 100%! The majority of the time if they don't need to charge you, they won't, and if they need to, their bench rates are better than Performance Archery and they do better work. Also, Bret at Willow Creek Archery Is amazing! And Bruce from Bow N Arrow Shop is fantastic and all of their Bow Techs there are phenomenal. Avoid Performance Archery at all costs!!!

My youngest wanted to take a lesson here for her birthday. This was actually our second time here…read moreas my oldest wanted to come here for her birthday several years ago. They usually have offerings on Groupon for savings, however, it's also easy to book online from their website and pay directly. Ian was our instructor and he did an excellent job. He was very patient with us and definitely knows his stuff! The lesson started with basic safety and then proceeded to technique. He helped my youngest out by letting her try several different bows to make sure she was comfortable. I was pretty rusty, but ended up hitting the bullseye a couple of times. They usually do a round where you blow up a balloon and try to pop it with the arrow, but they were out of balloons this time. As a result, Ian created a challenge for us where whoever hit the bullseye, or closest to it, would win a Riverside Archery sticker. Surprisingly enough, on the last round, I ended up victorious and the proud owner of the sticker! Yay! They have open lanes for practice at certain times of the day and you can rent the equipment from them as well. Awesome facility and super fun activity! Highly recommend Riverside Archery!

It adds to the hunting experience that includes good hiking, tracking, etc. Charlie (very helpful and personable) gave us about a 10 min orientation, a rundown and some tips, then took us to the rim of the canyon and sent us on in for our hunt. About 45 min in, we sighted our first animals (goats). And about an hour in, we saw our first pigs in "pig canyon". They were hiding in the shrubbery, and started to leave when we came near. We passed on taking one. A little more domesticated and not as big as I hoped to take (though they're decent size and will provide some good meat). So with that, we continued through the canyon- walking the hills, crevices, and dried creeks, Looking for the bigger game. About Two hours passed and we didn't see anything besides a ram and another couple goats. I started to question whether I should have pulled the trigger on the earlier ones. About three hours in, we saw her- a 450 .lb hog hiding in the bushes. She didn't drop on the first shot with my 6.5 grendel (she did, but got back up and took off) and led us on a 15 min chase before we could put her out quickly. Charlie and his buddy came down into the canyon and hauled our pig out for us. He was great and informative as he butchered for us. I came home with about 6-7 cubit feet (filled my freezer) of bacon, pulled pork, tenderloin, roast, and more. Highly recommend for new hunters. This hunt is what you make of it. 1-2 hours in you can take an easy target and get the meat, or you can choose to hunt for the bigger or more elusive animals like the big hogs or razorbacks and do some good hiking, looking, tracking. For me, the latter was worth it.
