About
Ye Olde Delph Bowmen Woodland, based in Bolton, retains its historical name as a nod to the club’s origins. Specialising in field archery, members shoot at paper face and 3D targets at varying distances in a woodland setting. The club’s homemade 2D targets, including a 6ft+ Rhino, crafted by one of the talented members, add to the unique experience.
Founded around 1981 by Mr. Alex Grant, Ye Olde Delph Bowmen moved through several locations before settling at The Delph in Bolton in 2000. Despite challenges, such as limited space and terrain difficulties, the club remains welcoming to archers of all levels.
Affiliated with the National Field Archery Society (NFAS) and the English Field Archery Association (EFAA), the club upholds the highest standards of the sport. At the end of open shoots, medals are awarded to the top 3 archers in each category, fostering a competitive atmosphere.
