It wad our first class and she explained everything in a great way, we enjoyed ourselves and learn a new skill!! The place only takes cash so keep that in mind read more

Been meaning to come here for years now and did it on a whim on a Friday night. We walked in, and we were able to book an hour beginner lesson/rental ($35pp, cash only) that was starting in less than 30m. They have a small seating area where you can wait and watch other shoot in the meantime. There's a jacket rack in the hallway and a bathroom available. The staff there was very sweet and welcoming, and our instructor, whose name I didn't catch (tall, long hair), was a great teacher in going through safety and the basics & giving pointers and answering questions! Our lesson just had around 4 people total to begin with, and then 2 joined later, which seemed decent (since you have to wait until the last person clears shooting before we all grab our arrows again). After you're finished, you have the option to take your target sheet with you if you'd like a small momento! It was such a fun experience for me personally and a great date night place. Would definitely do it again and recommend it, especially for anyone who wants to try out archery! read more

If you're looking to try something new for a date night or even to just get into archery this was great! We paid 30 per person(CASH) and got a tutorial and all the necessary equipment to borrow during the time. Our instructor was great! After showing us the basics he would come and check on us sporadically but it was kind of on your own which was pretty cool. Everyone there was friendly and welcoming and seemed excited to share their craft. I would probably even go back. It was so much fun. read more

Came here today for the first time and we had a mini lesson before we started shooting! The lesson was super helpful & great to get us started. Once we started shouting, it was really fun! The staff here are all friendly and great. They made sure we followed all the safety protocols and took it very seriously, for the right reasons!!! Overall, I had such a fun time, and I definitely will be coming back. read more

What a hidden gem in Queens. The place was clean, compliant with Covid vaccine checks and the staff was friendly. We came here with a group of 8 and had a great time. Our instructor Martin gave a thorough, yet quick lesson after we checked in. All of us were beginners but with Martin's help, we were up and running after the lesson. There's a lot of rules, but all are in place to keep you and others around you safe. The hour long lesson is $30 (cash only) and includes the 15 minute lesson and rentals. It went by so fast! I definitely want to come back! read more

I'm back at it I was in this establishment in 2016. I hope I haven't lost touch. My lesson is at 6:30 and it's 6:19 right now I'm nervous and excited. Martin was my instructor this time and he was a good instructor. There were times I missed the target but I'm planning to come back often during the spring/summer so I'm excited. read more

It was a nice afternoon date when it was pouring outside, and we had a terrific time. We would like to thank our instructor Vicky for her patience and kindness throughout our first archery lesson! Once again, thank you! read more

Went here for the first time , it was very busy inside and the inside was not as big as I expected it to be. When you come for the first time you have to pay for lesson/rental fee for the bow/arrow. It was pricey in my opinion $30 for just one hour but the experience was worth it. Be careful and pay close attention to when the lessons are given though because she talks fast. I am a slow learner and the 7 minute or so quick directions went through my ears but I still managed to learn and create some memories. One thing about the rental bows/arrows were that they had some issues such as pieces were about to fall off or were misadjusted. Kinda felt scared that the arrow was going hurt me to be honest. But all in all I do not regret going there at all and recommend to give it a try, I saw people of all ages there, from children to senior citizens. I liked how nice the service was as well. The bow was heavy and the next morning my whole back and shoulder were sore. read more

Stopped by for an hour session including a lesson last weekend, and we will definitely be back. The hour started with instruction on how to use the compound bow, and the instructor helped us refine our form as we moved through the brief lesson. Then, it was time for us to shoot on our own, with the instructor checking in as needed to support as necessary. Definitely worth the price, and a fun way to spend the afternoon. read more

My bf surprised me with a lesson here the other day and I had so much fun. The class consisted of 7 of us with two instructors. They were all patient in setting us up and teaching us to use the bow properly. Then it was mostly free shooting for the rest of the hour. It costed $30 per person. I thought it was worth it. I would suggest that maybe halfway into the hour, the staff could switch something up. Whether it be some kind of competition, or moving farther away from the target, I was surprised they kind of just left us alone to shoot from the same place for the entire course. I would return! It is a fun active thing to do, and the staff makes it very easy to learn. read more

My boyfriend and I bought a Groupon and made a reservation on the website. We were also allowed to reschedule very easily. The place is located on a less busy street, but parking may be difficult to find. We arrived 10 minutes early and checked in at the front desk with the name we put the reservation for. We were told to sit in the waiting area where there was a backdrop and arrow headbands for a photo op and vending machines for snacks. Then our instructor James welcomed and guided us to our lanes. He was very informative, humorous and reminded me of Cisco Ramon from the Flash. In the end, the guy at the counter also gave us a discount card to return next time. I would love to come back and try the other bows as well! read more

Been here several times. Each time with a different instructor but all have been great and funny. Each time I've been here I've brought new people with me and we all had fun on all occasions. Definitely a fun place to come to and destress as well! read more

I have been here two times and I love this place. Both times I went, I used the Groupon. It was super easy to use and simple to follow the directions. The area is in Flushing/ Bayside. Some people might have an issue with the area because it's not so upscale, but it's really easy to find parking if you drive. If you didn't, then you can take the bus. There's also a lot of great food places around. It is a very Korean neighborhood so I suggest looking around Yelp for recommendations. This place is not that big when you go in. There are two range areas where they hold different classes. Since I got the Groupon, I took a class with around 28 other people. I kind of wish that they wouldn't cram so many people into one class. If everyone makes it into the class, you are almost touching elbows. The classes are fun and you start out pretty close to the targets. You shoot with your partner taking turns. When everyone has gotten a handle of how to shoot, you move back so that the targets are further away. It was a bit slow, but they were beginner classes. It takes a while for everyone to learn and the instructors are very thorough with safety instructions. I would highly suggest taking the beginners classes if you have never shot a bow and arrow before. I would love to come again on my own time before the classes start and just practice. With your own bow and arrow, it is only $15/hr. With rentals, it is $25/hr. read more

Because of the movie Hunger Games we wanted to try Archery. Zozi and Livingsocial offered coupons for two introduction lesson to archery. The class was 90 minutes of group lesson and it was great! If you hunger for a bow & arrow, look for the discount and give it a "shot." It was a blast! We had Mike for the lesson. He is great. Rate 5/5. The Zozi coupon is valid only Saturday and Sunday after 4pm. read more

My 9 year old son came home from school and randomly says that he'd like to try archery. I assume something was discussed in school. After a quick search on line, I came across Queens Archery. I called around 11 am and the gentleman I spoke with confirmed he had open slots for the afternoon. We arrived 2pm. There is only street parking so you'll have to work that out. We walked in to a greeting and was asked to sign in. We sat briefly and observed some of the archers. Our coach gave us a tutorial on the the equipment and the use of it. He also covered the rules of the range. Once we finished we were underway. We donned our coffers and loaded the arrows. We lined up with the other archers and fired away. My son had a great time. I have to admit. So did I. The competitive juices begin to flow and I really tried to tighten my shot group and hit the bullseye. Great place to spend time with the kids or just take a moment to your self. read more

Got a deal on groupon, $30 for 2 people. When you come in they give you another $10 off for your next visit. You really get your money's worth because you spend the full 1.5 hours there. 1. Instructor is friendly, funny, patient, and accommodating. 2. For newbies like me, 1.5 hrs was good because my arm was starting to get tired and shake LOL. 3. You'll be switching off with your partner for this session if you got it off groupon, but if you took a class already you can have solo time with a choice of two different bows. 4. You get to take the target home to show off or hang up in the wall of shame. Great activity and place for couples, friends, and family read more

By far one of the best class I've ever taken. I was really looking forward to this class and I am so happy I tried it. I purchased a groupon for Queens Archery and went in for a Saturday, 5:30 pm class. Our instructor's name was Andrew and he was super nice. He explained everything really well and he really knew what he was talking about. According to him, the classes are usually pretty big, so we got lucky with only 7 of us. We all got our own bows and arrows and we had plenty of space. I really liked how the instructor noticed everything. He would point out what you were doing wrong, then gave instructions on how to change it so you can shoot better/more accurately, etc. At the beginning I was hesitant, but by the end I absolutely loved it. They also give you a $10 coupon for the next visit! 10/10 would totally come again. read more

Went to queens archery for my birthday. I didn't know what to expect, but instructor James made the lesson very enjoyable. He was humorous and allowed for me and the other people attending the lesson to get rid of our anxiety when shooting a bow. The one on one pep talk made the lesson unique when he used the data from our shots and made us look like superstars after giving us advice to improve. This place, for the convenient location and the accommodating staff, is definitely worth a second visit. read more

Queens Archery - Practicing form! - Sports Clubs Near Me - Flushing, New York

Came here with the wife through a livingsocial deal. It was an introductory to archery class that was for 1.5 hours. Our instructor was Mike, he was very knowledgeable, helpful, fun, and had a great sense of humor. If you plan to do an intro class make sure that you RSVP as soon as possible because spots can fill up quick. For those that want to just shoot without the intro course, or maybe you've done this before. The hourly rate is $25 with rental, or $15 if you have your own equipment. The class was very informative, and it allowed everyone to shoot from a VERY comfortable distance, and as the time came closer to ending the class we step further back. At the end of the class, we were shooting from the 20 meter range. It was a lot of fun. Mike helped many people take action pictures and it looked like we were auditioning for a superhero show on TV. For the newbies like myself, make sure that you ask if you can have an arm guard, because if you hold your arm too straight, the string can hit you and you can get bruised. That was the case for both my wife and I. So better to be safe than sorry, ask them at the front desk, but they'll ask you for a deposit. Prices are reasonable and staff are great. I will definitely be coming back here. read more

Came here with a few friends using a groupon. I had an instructor named Mike, who was extremely patient and friendly with us as we went over how to shoot a bow and safety protocols. He even volunteered to help with taking our pictures, because quite frankly there's something about the lighting in that place that makes it near impossible to get a good picture. Honestly, I was pretty terrible at shooting a bow, but he kept coming over to help give me some pointers. That was pretty nice. The groupon gave us a half an hour lesson and then an hour of free shooting. We shot from five feet, ten feet and 20 feet. If you come for this lesson, try to come in pairs, cause they will make you pair up for your shooting lessons. You don't want anyone being the odd person out. I think the one bad thing is that if you're not there for lessons and you want to "free shoot" their hours are a bit hard to get to. They close on 5 on the weekdays, and if you want to go on the weekends, Mike gave us a heads up and said that there might be a wait, if you're coming after 12. Lessons are always at night, after closing. That's not too bad though. I believe that free shooting with rentals is $20/hour. Definitely would come here again and would definitely recommend this place to another person. read more

I really enjoyed my first experience here. I've learned about basic archery back in high school but none of that experience helped me. Looking for parking was not an issue around the area. The instructor, Nate was super patient with waiting for everyone to slowly arrive. He was funny and knowledgable. Pay attention to the introduction, safety rules and advice from the instructors for a fun time. The time we had to shoot ended rather shortly so it definitely left me wanting to come back again. Our group was given a next time discount so I'd definitely be back soon. read more

This is one of those endless groupon date nights. This place was actually quite fun...even though i was the biggest cluts. I kept forgetting to bend my arms and got snapped by the strings twice!

Came here for the 1st time a few weeks ago and absolutely loved it! Definitely will come back to work on my aim. It's something new, different and certainly more challenging then it looks. I came for one of their lessons with a discount deal and the instructor was really informative and patient. He taught us the basics and let us shoot from multiple distances when we got more comfortable.The lesson lasted about 1.5 hours. The range is a tad smaller than I thought it'd be because it has only 2 sides, which allow for about 10 shooters at once. Also, just a note on the location in that it's really deep into Flushing and located in a quiet area. Other than that, it was a great experience and I didn't realize how much fun it was going to be. Everyone who hasn't tried archery should definitely give it a try! read more

Our reservation was at 7:30 so we arrived about 15 early to look around and check in. They started promptly at 7:30. Everyone was very informative. We spent the first 30 min learning to shoot. Then, we got to shoot for a while. It was really fun and we will be back Also, they gave us a coupon for $10 off our next visit!! read more

Martin was our instructor for our group of 5 newbies. He was nice and patient and made it a fun lesson. It was our first time trying archery and we all had a wonderful time. We'll be back to try again. read more

A really fun and unique experience! I live a few blocks away and never even knew this place existed. Walked in without a reservation and the place was fairly empty. They set up the equipment and got the lesson going right away. Martin was informative and thorough. The intro lesson took about 15 mins and after that we were free to shoot at our leisure. The bows are much heavier than they look! Or maybe I'm just super out of shape. It was actually a really good arm, shoulder, and back work out. It was $25/hr, but I know they have Groupon deals for the weekend that are cheaper as well. Would definitely be back to channel my inner Katniss again. read more

We had a Groupon deal so our group session was held after hours - such a blast! I was concerned that the session would be overcrowded or our time would be cut short, but that wasn't the case at all. Awesome deal, fun times. Nate, our instructor, was great. Highly recommend! read more

A GREAT NEW EXPERIENCE. After years of wanting to come here, I finally did yesterday 7:30 pm with a Groupon deal. Once we arrived, we were given a voucher for $10 off for the next time we come (originally $25 per person). Many people came with another person and others were a group of 3. The instructor lined had one person from each pair lined up against the line. We turned to our right side to straddle the line and learned the correct form and how to go about pulling back our bow and loading our arrows. Once we covered that, we switched over to the other partner and did the same. From there, it was an hour of shooting arrows (from 8-9 pm, alternating partners) and it was really fun! The place is a bit cramped with 12 targets that could've been a bit spaced out a bit more for personal space if space allowed for this (if 12 people really showed up, I could see it being a bit too crowded...we had 3 targets unused). Anyway, you get to shoot 4 arrows each turn. You wait until everyone else has shot their 4 arrows and hear "clear" before going to your target and picking up your arrows and head back to the line. My form was originally off, as I had my right arm in a really weird bent position instead of it being kept at a right angle and using my arm/shoulders to move, and the instructor, who has been shooting for 7-8 years, pointed it out and helped me with where to aim. He also gave me a different bow to try (the original one aimed too high). I improved greatly after that. Loved the attentiveness and pointers. I definitely want to revisit sometime in the near future - friendly folks + totally beginner-friendly. read more

*Warning, this review contains profanity.* *Kids, close your eyes.* 3. 2. 1. *Adults, be warned.* Inner thoughts: "Fuck fuck fuck. I've fucked up not once, not twice, but thrice." 1. Out of impulse, I bought a Groupon deal for $15, which expires within a week of purchase rather than 3 months. 2. Turns out the Groupon deal is only available on Saturdays and Sundays evening at 5:30pm, 6:00pm, 7:30pm, or 8:00pm. 3. To arrive at this location, I have to take the Q58 bus to flushing and then transfer to the Q12 bus which took almost 2hrs to get to the destination... And of course, it would be on a day where God decides to take a leak on us humans... on and off drizzles and the "I really have to go" downpour(https://media.giphy.com/media/l2JdZuhVI1iLVPvuE/giphy.gif). Someone needs to get their bladder checked... Al Lizzio (the boss?) was extremely helpful and friendly! You ain't gonna find a grumpy old man in this place! He told me I seem like the kind of gal that would love archery, and sees me riding a motorcycle with a leather jacket. Oh, yeah. #badass. You receive a $10 off coupon when you check in. No, you cannot use the $10 off on your next Groupon deal. (damn) Recurve and compound lessons alternate with one another, so you can attend both. One HUGE downside from this was that you have to take turns with a partner and only get to shoot 4 arrows at a time. After getting the training lessons + taking turns with a partner, you don't get much out of the deal. You start off from 5 yards to 10 yards to 16 yards and lastly, 20 yards. Damn boss, you're right. I fell in love with archery. Will be back. In the summer. Fucked up in the beginning by being spontaneous, but it ended up being a magical night. Daryl Dixon, are you looking for a partner?

If you don't have your own bow and arrow, they charge $25 per person for an hour worth of activity. The instructor we had was very nice and thorough in his demonstrations and explanations. He made sure to attend to each person in our group of 4 to ensure we handling the bow and arrows correctly. After the brief lesson, which is not counted in your hour, you begin at the closest line and then continue on independently. There are multiple people shooting at the same time so you communicate with each other as far as if you want to move to a further back shooting line. Overall, it was a fun time and would be a great stress reliever. :) I only wish the price was a little lower... They also only accept cash, but an ATM is available. read more

I told my adult kids to start buying me experiences instead of gifts and this was one I received for Mother's Day. I never took archery so this was a first time experience for me. I felt a bit apprehensive when we pulled up to the location and walked in. That all changed when our group -- three in mines and other people bringing our group to about 18 in total. Our instructor -- can't remember his name, but he had longer hair -- was great in proving instruction -- which took about 20 - 25 minutes. He was stern, helpful and playful throughout our session. It was fun and a pleasant 90 minute experience. I felt we received a good amount of time to do archery and I learned a lot from this. We received $10 off coupons, which I am going to use again before the summer is done. I recommend this place if you want to learn about archery,a beginner, or just want a bit of excitement with a few friends and family! read more
