I couldn’t get enough of archery at Fort Ilocandia so when I got back, I read up on archery and I chanced upon information on a range called Kodanda. It’s more accessible than Gandiva so I made reservations and today, Leslie, Joset, and I visited it.
It’s definitely more serious than my recent experience. The range has 7 lanes and is fully air-conditioned. For P550, you get a full set of equipment (bow, arrows, quiver, armguard, and finger tab) and basic instruction/supervision for an hour. In addition, you pay P30 for every target sheet you use (quite expensive). We ended up each shooting 70 or so arrows at one hapless target sheet. 70 arrows in a bit over an hour! That’s one definition of fun!
If you plan to pursue archery a bit more seriously, they also offer archery lessons for P6,000 which is good for 10 hours that you can schedule at your convenience over 3 months.
