Essex Battlezone Archery

Archery taken to the extreme!

Imagine what you would get if you gave a hen party bows and arrows, split the group into two halves, and got everyone involved in a hella big shooting match. Sharp arrowheads are out, rounded rubber ones are in. Face and body protection is supplied when you arrive. It's super fun, adrenaline-heavy, and safe. If you want an activity for a bitchin' bride, Essex Battlezone Archery is just the job.

The point is simple: be the team that wins the match. To do it, you have to smash a number of games. A match has five. Each one is about 10 minutes long and they're all a bit different. No complicated rules. About the most complicated task you'll face is shooting balls balanced on top of cones. And if you can't do that, just aim for the enemy and keep picking them off until they're all out.

Archery is trending. Big time. A bunch of celebs have got in on the act, training with bow and arrow for movie roles. Think Chris Hemsworth for The Huntsman: Winter's War. Also Katrina Law for Spartacus: Vengeance, and for her role as Nyssa al Ghul on Arrow. And let's not forget Orlando Bloom as Legolas in the Lord of the Rings films. Essex Battlezone Archery is about as close as a girl can get to seeing some action in Southeast England. Get on board and find out what all the fuss is about.
