Excellent instruction from Larry, excellent prices, and beginner friendly! We had a group of 6 people, 4 adults and 2 children (ages 8 and 7). With the exception of 2 of the adults having some sort of experience as children (basically, still beginners) everyone was a beginner.We opted for a private group lesson and Larry was our teacher. He was excellent with the kids and made sure to keep them involved with everything. He took time with each of us to go over things we needed to do to start with, and then again to help us improve.This was such a great experience and we all enjoyed learning archery and will definitely be back again!

My boyfriend came here to find some new arrows for his recurve (despite a phone interaction with a very rude man prior to arriving). The man there was extremely unhelpful, to the point of making you feel like you were wasting his time by asking questions. If youre looking for a friendly atmosphere and people willing to help you learn about archery equipment, take your money elsewhere.

Larry is awesome! My son has learned so much from him I really recommend the youth classes.

The old guy behind the counter gives truly terrible customer service. I asked him to help me adjust something on my bow. He refused. As I struggled with it, the owner came over and asked me if I needed help. I told him I needed to adjust something, and he took me back over to the service area and told the guy to help me, which he did, and only took him about 30 seconds. This is just one example of the bad interactions Ive had with this guy. If you need work done on a bow dont come here.

Took my bow to have a new string put on they told me at most 14 days it took them 18 days then within a hundred shots the serving went out when I returned tosalt lake archery to ask them to fixit the tech got very confrontational and tried to blame his poor craftsmanship on me long story short I do not recommend salt lake archery and I regret ever giving them my business

I was kind of nervous because of the other reviews but this place is great. A little hard to find but was really easy and fun. Super chill environment.

I love this place! Everyone that works there is super friendly and knowledgeable! My hubby and I go shoot at least twice a week. The price is very reasonable. :)

Always a fun place to go. Staff is extremely helpful.

I really like Salt Lake Archery, its a great place to practice and keep your gear in good shape.

Great range. Owner is very helpful. I paid for a one hour archery lesson and it was worth every penny! I learned so much. It moved me to buy a bow from them. If you’re looking to get into archery or if you were already into it this is the place to go.

Great indoor range staff is friendly. Always a pleasure to meet and talk with other archers.

My husband and I had been here a handful of times to rent equipment and shoot. Enjoyed it enough that we got our own equipment. I bought a compound bow, and since I had never shot one before, scheduled a lesson with Larry.The staff is certainly reserved, but not rude. Isaiah at the counter was incredibly helpful getting my bow set up for my draw length and strength while explaining each step of what he was doing and showing me how to make future adjustments myself.My first impression of Larry was that he was gruff, but that impression melted pretty quickly once the lesson began. Larry is a phenomenal teacher. Hes knowledgeable, but there are plenty of knowledgeable people who are terrible teachers. Larry is able to convey what he knows in a way that makes it accessible to someone with virtually no experience. Hes observant, patient, and kind. His teaching highlighted what I was doing right and expanded it rather than criticizing the mistakes Im sure I was making.Check out the wall around the cash register: you dont get that many commendations and thanks for your work with the youth paralympics if youre rude and dismissive.I rarely write reviews but was so surprised to see the negative comments about this place that I had to share my experience.

Went there for lessons. Larry is a great coach so much patience takes you through each step over and over to make sure you are confident and no longer doubtful and nervous. So glad I went there to get a lesson, cause I had no idea what I was doing. Thanks Larry! Youre the best!

Very reasonably priced. $6 for a whole day of shooting. Equipment rental was $5 and an extra $1 for the target. It was a little frustrating waiting for slower people to finish before I could get my arrows. Next time Ill go when there are less people. Definitely coming back!

Great place! I hadnt ever done archery before but I had always wanted to try, they were very nice and helpful and explained everything to me. It is an older place and you have to be aware of the other people in your area but I really like it. Plus its very affordable!

Poor service. Wasnt helpful and didnt really answer my questions. Maybe this place isnt for newbies. He gave off the vibe that he didnt want me to get into archery. I give it 2 stars because nobody was using the range so you could easily get some practice in here.

I really like the hours and the price. The staff is eager to ignore you. They aren’t rude, just distant. I usually prefer that to overly enthusiastic “can I help you?” types at the chains, but it is almost like you step up to the counter and need to clear your throat to get service. That said, it is a cheap range to practice at, and as the adage goes, quality, time or price - pick two. I keep coming back because it is very affordable and has a great location (once you find it).

Everyone there was super cool to me. Went out of their way to help me with my bow and made sure I was having a good time shooting. Good price and good people.

I really like this place. The same guys are usually there and are very nice. Not the most out going fellows but nice. They were helpful with tips and getting me sized for the right bow. Good pricing and good hours especially for dates.

Love this place! If you are polite you get GREAT service! My sister and I come here weekly! Cheap range rental and bow and accessories! Plus ample bows, arrows, and accesories for sale! I LOVE THIS PLACE!

Quiet place to sling some arrows. Staff is very helpful and insightful.

This is the most amazing archery range I have ever been to (And Ive been to a lot)! I love going with my friends and family and honestly, every time I go it gets better and better. I STRONGLY recommend going.

If I could give this shop a zero I would. They have absolutely no knowledge of bow mechanics. First example is when I took my bow in to get tuned and they said I had a bent limb and my bow was no good. I took it to Wilde arrow and got a second opinion and they said it was fine and to go shoot it. Im shooting it accurately at 140 yards. Second example is when I was getting something as simple as a d loop replaced. I got my bow back and the d loop was half an inch longer than the one that was on there. I took it back and said he messed up and he tied another one on and it was the exact same. Wrong again. He informed me that it was impossible to tie a shorter d loop. That turned me off to that place for a long time until today Id thought Id go see if I could get my peep site switched out. I had purchased the peep site from them and was informed it would take a week for them to get to it. One week for a 5 min job?!? What a joke. I recommend nobody ever go here and tell everyone you know not to go here.

Called multiple times to reserve a group activity. I was repeatedly told to call back later, and speak with Larry. I called five or six times over a period of three days, but Larry was either busy or unavailable. We dropped in with our group anyway. The price is the best part of the range, but the gear is old and worn down, the ranges are mediocre, and the staff is standoffish. You wont be able to beat the price, but you get what you paid for, which is low quality.

Great place! Great prices, nice set up. Great place to go shooting. They let me use an arm guard for free when I forgot mine and gave me some advice even though I wasnt paying for a lesson.

My Wife, who was an Olympic hopeful in Archery went in to this store to have the poundage adjusted on a bow I had bought there years ago and to purchase arrows and a few other needed supplies. Not only did they not adjust the bow, they also refused to sell her arrows or anything else claiming that she didnt know what it was that she needed or that she was looking for. Not sure why they would assume this, if it was a gender thing or what, but with literally thousands of hours on the range my wife has an in depth knowledge of the equipment that she needs to shoot. For heavens sake she was a shooting sports instructor for three years! She was treated extremely poorly and was flat out refused service. Growing up in the area i was always a customer of Salt Lake Archery but after this i will never go back. This is no way to treat a customer!

This place has the feel of a hole-in-the-wall but it is really the best indoor archery range in town. The staff are knowledgeable and can help the novice. They also sell bows and other equipment here. Reasonable prices as well.

I initially went here because it was convenient for a lunch break. Im glad I did! Im not sure what previous reviewers have meant about rudeness as the staff has always been pleasant and chill when Ive gone there. If you go during the day when its not busy, sometimes theyll come over and give you tips (not to mention you can sometimes have one of the range areas to yourself). They are very knowledgable about the sport and have good recommendations for equipment. I had some cheap-o beginners arrows I was using and they let me try out some better arrows. The difference in my shooting was astounding! I immediately purchased some better arrows. With the customer service I receive each time I go, I wouldnt go anywhere else.Also, Ive been to a few other ranges and a lot seem to be more hunter-focused. This one has a great mix for any type of archer, whether youre doing longbow, recurve, compound, whatever. Go here!

We visited their range during a SLC Questival adventure challenge and will certainly be going back for more range time. They are very well staffed, ranges are well equipped and their showroom is outstanding. If you need technical support they are there to make sure your time slinging arrows are safe and enjoyable.

Starting grandson into archery--after reading reviews probably wont go here...sounds like they might cater to regular customers--and not looking for new customers.

Been taking archery classes here, and Larry and thr staff are exceptionally helpful in teaching the basics and helping you pick equipment. The shooting range itself is pretty good. You have choices between target and 3D archery. They definitely strive to do right by their customers.

The staff here are jerks, and the place is a bit dirty, but it can be a good time.

I dont know what is with all the negative reviews! It is an older place but I dont mind that because I TRULY get personal, quick, and positive help every time I go there. I see the scout troops there and I know the staff cares about the community and building people and the sport of archery! I have never been treated rude, never been ignored...I guess some are disagreeing but I whole-heartedly recommend this place to anyone who loves archery.

My family spent the summer in Salt Lake City and good times were had at Salt Lake Archery. Purchased a monthly pass for the entire family - they really paid attention to the needs of our children. It was also great to also see so many young children boys and girls both! I took the Instuctors Certification and will be back again for more training soon!

Went through an archery training program through here. It was well done. Nice staff

I love this place .. Its fairly cheap and if you dont know how to use a now they will teach u

Just walked in to shoot for an hour. It was $11/person (including equipment rental) and we could have stayed for as long as we wanted (until close). The equipment we were given was nothing exciting, but acceptable. Although I indicated that we were complete novices, we were told they didnt have time to show us how to do anything, which I was a little surprised about-I want expecting formal lessons or anything, but just a quick, basic run-through would have been nice. The guy that gave the equipment to my kids (8 and 10) talked to them like they were 3 years old, which they seemed a little annoyed by, but whatever. The facility felt a bit ghetto, but it works and does what it needed to do.

Couple yrs ago-my first place to learn from and from the regulars/my-inspirations who shot next to me.friendly/helpful staff, regulars, JOAD (jr oluympic archers...) and sometimes the former Olympic archers.STARTERS please search archery-safety (just as dangerous as firearms).Not to leave out the Matt Stutzman, one of my true sensei/inspiration and his coach

The building is very hidden. At a glance, you wouldnt be able to notice that there is an archery place right in front of you because the sign is small and there are no windows or a door that looks like the front door. I couldnt believe my eyes that I have been walking past an archery place for years and not noticing it.When you walk in, there are a set of stairs. The whole place looks kind of sketchy when you first walk in, but afterwards it just looks kind of worn down. When you turn right, there is a little shop full of archery items. When you turn left, there are open shooting ranges.My boyfriend and I were so confused when we first got there because no one was there to help us and we had no idea where to go to rent a bow and arrow. There was one young person and one elderly person there to assist us. They werent busy, but it took them a while to help us as we waited by the counter. When one person finally noticed, we were given a bow and 3 arrows. He kind of explained how to shoot, but not very thoroughly. We paid (about $11 each) and gave us our targets.We walked to the other side of the building to find a spot for us and we took the right edge of the main shooting range. We had no idea how to properly shoot. As we kept shooting, we learned through trial and error, but I bet we still werent doing it correctly.I had always wanted to shoot a bow and arrow, but I didnt know about any place close to me that would give me this opportunity. The prices were great, but the service was terrible; however, I would not mind coming back here again because I enjoy shooting arrows so much and its cheap for an unlimited time on the range.

It is clear that the people that work their know their craft which makes it a shame that they are so poor at customer service. Over the past year, I have been into the store four different times and each time I have left feeling like I was a burden and that my questions were not appreciated. The range was the only range open tonight and I took my 12 and 15 year old sons. They recognized the terrible service and started making fun of it. Unfortunately I cannot recommend the store. Go somewhere they not only know their craft, they want to share it.

The shop is great! I highly recomend it for all your archery needs. I went with no prior knowledge about archery, spoke with a gentleman named Larry he talked me through the tunning of my bow from start to finish free of charge. also they will do anything to make sure you are satisfied 100% with services rendered or products sold. A true pro shop. They have earned a life long customer.

Very very helpful! me and my friends did a class and now we do it every friday! but the teacher was the not very nice. and they dont have very good shooting range but whatever. we had a lot of fun.

This place is for everyone, not just the influential,,,bluecollar/whitecollar alike !,, and they KnoW their ArcherY

We brought our cub scout troop here for a lesson and to shoot. It was fantastic, the instructor was fun and informative with the scouts and everyone had a great time. (instructors name escapes me but he was in a wheel chair)

First off, if you drive a big truck, do not attempt to park near their store. It is in a very inconvenient place for sportsmen. When i walked in the store I felt like i was in a swap meet or a garage sale. The place is dirty, and unorganized. I walked back to the shop and looked at bows and other things for about 20 min. Not a single person acknowledged my existence the entire time i was there. Their shop is small, dirty, unorganized and over priced. I would not recommend this dump to anyone.

The worst customer service I have experienced in awhile. The employees are rude, entitled, and act put out with every request. Although somewhat knowledgeable be prepared to be disappointed with any kind of interaction you have.

My friend and I went there to do some archery and we had a wonderful time. Except being treated like we were idiots and the guy who helped us was a complete jerk. Once you get past the rudeness of the people who work there, its good.

Id been in twice to get some arrows and have a couple of bows looked at. Like two of the other reviewers, I have to agree; they just treat you like youre bothering them. Not a very good experience at all. I went in today to rent a bow and shoot, but there wasnt anyone behind the counter, or shooting. There were two women sitting off in a corner near the range, but they made no move to engage me or offer any assistance. Well, I didnt want to bother then anymore, so I left.I cant recommend this place for anything, really.

The staff is rude and likes to insult their customers. The range isnt that great either, but hey, at least I get to shoot archery. Ive been multiple times and its the same story. Their website doesnt show that they are an underground range because those photos are all outside.

The place was dark and run down. I dont know why they even came to the counter they seem so bothered I was there. They didnt want to educate me as I am a beginner in archery and had no experience. How do you expect people to want to purchase from you or use your facilities if your not willing to educate them about you products and the sport. I think a customer service facelift would help your business and sales. In the meantime I will drive to Jakes Archery in Orem, Utah. I had a wonderful experience there.

I shoot there regularly and the staff is nice and friendly. There was one mean employee a while back but hes gone now.

Nice and cheap place to go do some archery. Kinda old, but cant beat the convenient location or price.

These guys were awesome! It was our first time in and everyone, event patrons, helped us figure everything out.

Ive been to every bow shop in the valley and this is the ONLY ONE I will never return to. Worst customer service Ive ever experienced the old man in the wheel chair acts like youre a burden to be helped. And everyone else is inconsiderate and stuck up.

Love this place, 6$ to rent gear and 6$ to shoot on the range

I called just the other day and some guy answered I had some questions to ask but the guy that answered the phone he didn’t seem very interested in helping me out seem like he wanted to get off the phone and do whatever he was doing very annoyed I won’t be going here anytime soon

Salt and pepper to taste

Larry was a great instructor!

Bad service refused service to kids

Safe and relaxing atmosphere

The only reason they are in business is because they are the only archery range in the valley

12$ to rent a bow, arrows. No time limit.

Took time to help my wife get her bow set up as a first time shooter. We went here after having a bad experience at wild arrow archery up north and these people were much more willing to help.
