Welcome to the Bowmen of Wadebridge website. We are a small but friendly target archery club based just outside Wadebridge, North Cornwall. Shooting a variety of Recurve, Compound, Longbow and Barebow (sorry, no crossbows!) we welcome guest archers and beginners alike to join us on our picturesque outdoor range throughout the year or indoors through the winter months.
