Welcome to West Somerset Company of Archers. We are a friendly club based on Exmoor near Minehead.  


Whether you’re new to archery, an archer new to the area, or a former archer who wants to return, we’d be glad to hear from you.

We are affiliated to Archery GB, the Somerset County Archery Association, and the Grand Western Archery Society.

We promote all styles of target archery with Recurve, Compound, Longbow and Barebow archers all welcome at the Club.

Beginners courses are run throughout the year and enquiries from anyone interested in archery are always welcome. Club equipment is available for novice members to use until they develop sufficient technique to warrant the purchase of their own equipment.

Please see below on how to learn archery with us or for more information on our club, please explore the website or email info@wsarchers.club
