BayState Archers Training Center in Norwood specializes in barebow, compound, and Olympic recurve target archery. The facility welcomes both new and experienced archers with range staff available to assist newcomers. The range is open for public shooting Wednesday through Sunday on a first-come, first-serve basis, with rental equipment available including recurve bows, arrows, and arm guards. Open shooting rates are $25 per person for the first hour and $7 for each additional half-hour when using facility equipment, or $20 for the first hour with personal equipment.
Beyond casual open shooting, BayState Archers offers structured training through weekly Adult and Junior Olympic Archery Development (JOAD) programs, with many students having been selected for the US Junior Dream Team, US Archery, and World Archery teams. The center also provides classes for ages eight and up, with flexible scheduling and family rate options. The facility caters to special events including birthday parties, corporate team-building experiences, and scouting groups, with certified instructors leading these programs.
The business maintains special promotions throughout the week to encourage participation. Sunday is "Family Day," offering immediate family members discounted rates of $12.50 per person per hour. Midweek visitors can take advantage of "Cheap Date Night" on Wednesdays and Thursdays, and the facility hosts "Singles Night" on select Thursdays for adults 21 and older. An on-site pro shop and gift cards are also available for visitors.
