Shoot this summer!

If you're stuck at home thanks to the summer heat, there's something different you can do now! Try your hand - or rather, aim - at the all-new indoor archery range located in the Al Forsan International Sport Resort in Abu Dhabi.
You can try out the old-fashioned sport and engage in target practice on the purpose-built 15-metre range, and test your mettle against different targets. The state-of-the-art range stocks traditional recurve bows as well as the more modern compound bows, and offers people the opportunity to perfect two different types of archery disciplines at one venue. Prices for renting ranges start from Dh150, and rentals for the bows start at Dh100. For more info, call 800 AL FORSAN (25367726) or visit www.alforsan.com
