Typical hazards & measures
Falling target stands
— Ensure target stands are securely anchored and regularly inspected for stability. Instruct participants to stand clear of targets while arrows are being withdrawn, to avoid injury from falling stands.
Accidental arrow release
— Instruct participants to nock and draw arrows only when on the shooting line and facing targets. Emphasize proper technique and alertness to avoid accidental release, stopping the session if necessary.
Behavioral issues during shooting
— Establish clear behavioral expectations before each session. Misconduct should result in removal from the activity, with instructors closely monitoring for compliance with safety rules.
Handling of arrows inappropriately
— Teach participants to handle arrows by the shaft and avoid touching the point or fletching. All participants should know how to properly nock and carry arrows safely.
Slips and trips
— Inspect the range for hazards, like uneven ground or obstacles, before each session. Participants should be instructed not to run while on the range, particularly when handling arrows. Ensure they wear sturdy footwear for outdoor terrain.
