My son has been taking private lessons from Coach Paul for about 6 months and has been extremely…read morehappy with his lessons and progress. Paul is extremely patient and encouraging and is focused on teaching proper form and developing good habits, while making sure my son enjoys the sport and is meeting his personal goals. My son has improved dramatically, not only by gaining more technical skills, but also by gaining confidence in his abilities. South Bay Archery was also extremely generous and accommodating over the holidays, as our family was searching for a fun activity to do on New Year's eve with some friends. We booked a private party with Coach Paul and Coach Lani and everyone had a wonderful time! They made sure all 9 participants learned proper safety protocols, and taught our group how to shoot since some of us had no prior experience. They kept a good pace, explaining the challenges of shooting from further distances, and made things extra fun by creating a competition at the end, with the winner getting a prize! After that we relaxed and ate in the party room upstairs, which overlooked the shooting area. We all had a GREAT TIME! I encourage anyone looking for a fun group activity to check out South Bay Archery Lessons! I can't say enough about the kind, warm and engaging nature of both Coach Paul and Coach Lani, as well as the exceptional care and professionalism they put into all they do! We are looking forward to learning more archery skills and sharing fun times with South Bay Archery Lessons!

Making a reservation was easy, with a wide range of availability, and they answered any pre-appointment questions quickly. Upon arriving with my friends, the lesson all at once insightful, informative, witty, and encouraging. Coach Paul gave us helpful safety tips (side note: leave everything you know about archery from movies/tv at the door) and taught us all about the fundamentals. Coach Lani gave incredibly helpful tips that took my aim and shooting power to the next level. This is an amazing place, whether you've never held a bow before or a seasoned archer looking to take your skills to the next level. My friends and I left having already made plans to return!

With many different lanes of various distances that are marked off and measured. It is located right at the beach too! Off a dirt road that can be a little tough on some cars so you've been warned. You have to join and become a member to shoot there. You also have to already own a bow. you need to bring your bow in and sign up on I believe the last Saturday of the month. It's well worth it.

Coaches Byron and Fred were very helpful in setting us up with the equipment and gear. I'm looking forward to more lessons!!

It used to be at a different area in The Southbay Pavillion when it used to be called The Carson Mall; and it was a bigger building too! This building that it's in, is wayyyy smaller, but they still have the products you need for sports, shooting, fitness, etc.. It's still always awesome getting their random coupons in the mail. Even if you saw something for sale and you forgot your coupon; the workers here are nice enough to give it to you for the sale price, as long as you're not lying and if the sale's still going on. It's pretty clean and well-organized inside, along with great workers who give their customers full attention. I sure do miss seeing Neelam working at this store! She was super cool and had great customer service! Same with the lady with the reddish hair and glasses, who likes watching wrestling! All in all; this Big 5 gets a BIG 5 STARS from me because it's just phenomenal after so many years; plus... you can't go wrong with the huge parking and the fact that it's in a mall.

They usually direct us to a general area where the item might be located, but don't offer much more guidance than that. More often than not, we end up leaving empty-handed and ordering the items online, which we probably should have done in the first place...but we wanted to check them out in-store before buying. Strangely enough, it's also always extremely busy whenever I visit. That means long lines and chaotic parking situations... I've even seen a few near-accidents in the lot. Overall, I wouldn't really recommend, but here I am back again.
