Mental Focus

New for 2013 is Blackberry Farm’s Archery Range. Located at Smoky Mountain Sports Club, the range boasts a shooting pavilion with targets out to 40 yards. Choose your bow, be it a long bow, recurve, or compound, and we will teach you the rest! To get the most out of your time there couple archery with a round of sporting clays.

For centuries, archery has reigned as a critical piece for survival, from putting food on the table to battle and warfare. Today, this zen pursuit captivates all who pick up the "stick and string" because of the truth behind each shot, the lesson it reveals about the person, and the essential connection to our past. Be it target archery or the stalking of wild game the mental toughness and focus remain the same; to be the arrow and deliver a strike to the heart of the target requires both strength of mind and will. Join us while we use these antiquated tools to further shape ourselves.
