{"product_id":"youth-archery-camp","title":"Youth Archery Camp — 5-Day Summer Program | Ages 8–17","description":"\u003cp\u003eIf you've been looking for a structured, hands-on way to get your kid into archery — not just a group activity where they take a few shots and go home — this is it. The Extreme Outfitters Youth Archery Camp is a 5-day program designed for new and beginner archers ages 8–17, taught indoors on our Jacksonville range by instructors who actually shoot. Every session is capped at 10 campers so every kid gets real instruction time, real feedback on their form, and real reps behind the bow. By Day 5 they're competing on a 3D course and walking away with a basic understanding of archery fundamentals.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAll equipment provided. All indoors.

Campers shoot from multiple distances and track their scores end by end. Includes a bullseye scoring game that builds awareness of shot placement and keeps the energy up.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eDAY 3 — 3D ARCHERY\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eHow 3D scoring works, vital zone identification on animal targets, and distance estimation without a rangefinder. Campers run a mini 3D course and score their own arrows.

Day 1 starts from zero, so no prior experience is required. Kids with some background will still benefit from structured instruction and the 3D and competition format in the back half of the week. Campers are welcome to bring their own bow if they have one.

The people teaching your kid shoot competitively and hunt. They know the difference between a proper anchor point and a guess, and they'll give your kid real feedback, not participation-trophy coaching.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe small group cap means no kid gets lost in the crowd. The indoor range means weather never cancels a session. And because we're a working shop, parents who come for pickup have access to gear, arrows, and starter packages on the spot — so when your kid catches the bug on Day 3, you don't have to wait a week for something to ship.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eNot sure which session week is right or have a question about the curriculum? Give us a call Monday through Saturday — real people answer the phone at Extreme Outfitters and we'll get you sorted.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eFREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eDOES MY CHILD NEED ANY ARCHERY EXPERIENCE?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eNo. Camp starts from zero on Day 1 — equipment, safety, and first arrows on the range.

We'll confirm it's range-appropriate before the session. All equipment is also provided if they don't have their own — no need to purchase anything before camp.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eWHAT IS THE REFUND POLICY?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eFull refunds are available up to 7 days before the camp week starts. Within 7 days of the session start, we offer a credit toward a future camp session.
