In light of the “Avengers”, the “Hunger Games”, and the new Green Arrow TV series, both of my kids have been interested in trying the sport of archery. So when I came across a Groupon deal for the Queens Archery Range I decided to take the whole family. We had an amazing time. My wife even enjoyed it, and I didn’t figure her for the archery type. We shot recurve bows that first night and I was shocked at how much fun I had getting my inner Hawkeye on! While the girls enjoyed themselves, they didn’t think that archery was going to be something that they would want to do on a regular basis. My boy on the other hand was hooked.<\/p>\n

A few weeks later I took my boy back \u00a0to the archery range in order to try out the compound bows.\u00a0I think we might get a matching father and son archery sets for Christmas. I am leaning towards a recurve rather than a compound bow. In addition to being cheaper and much easier to maintain, I was a much better shot with the recurve. Plus I just think they look cooler!<\/p>\n
