Come and Play it's Brilliant

 

The Robin Hood Event game zones offer one of the most fun days out you could imagine, but don't take our word for it, here's what some of our guests have said
 

Hi Steve

Sorry its taken this long to send you a note but just wanted to say thanks so much for an absolutely fantastic day's archery last week. We all had so much fun, met some great people and are all itching to have another go.

Of course Jason hasn't stopped smiling about his win. Much to Joe's annoyance! Strangely he keeps on using that archer's sign whenever we see him. Cant understand it...!
Thanks again.

Hi Steve

A fantastic day!

We all thoroughly enjoyed ourselves

Thank you again

Caroline your catering 'in the bush' was exemplary thank you for that

I do hope you have a successful summer (and winter and the future), you deserve to

Kind regards

Andy                                                                                             July 08 


 

Hi Steve and the team, I am just writing to say thanks for such a brilliant day. You are a great bunch who made a brilliantly set up day even better.

Here's wishing all the best for the future and I hope to be seeing you again.

Next time I will try not to lose as many arrows.

 

                            Cheers

                               Yeti                                                               July 08


 

Many thanks on behalf of Steve’s stag party.

We really did not know what the day would entail but I can say on everyone’s behalf it was a great day enjoyed by all.

Please pass on our thanks to all involved.

We will have now hesitation in recommending you

 

Alan (The Gold medal winner!!!)                                                        July 08


 

Hi Steve

 

I just wanted to say a massive thanks to you & your crew for last Saturdays "shoot", what an excellent day - even if I am still suffering abuse from my fellow archers regarding your photo comments.

 

The itinerary, food, atmosphere & banter was first rate, which all made for a truly memorable day.

 

Thanks again

Dexter                                                                                            July 08


 

Hi Steve,

 

Thanks for a great day. We were all full of it following our day with you and it surpassed our expectations. We enjoyed every aspect of the day, a good breakfast, lots of good advise and tips from the team of professionals throughout the day, a great lunch, plenty of good banter and a good level of competitiveness but not too testosterone fuelled!! Great photo's as well. Thanks once again, and I'm sure you'll be seeing us soon

 

Take Care

 

Carson                                                                                             July 08


 

Steve,

 

we had a fabulous day. I saw the photos were up - they make me look like I had a clue what I was doing - a total lie - but everyone was so nice and there was definitely a good team spirit. Thanks for the great day - I have already started handing out your leaflets :)

 

Shelley                                                                                             July 08


Steve,

Many thanks to you both for a really good day, everyone really enjoyed it and the weather was kind to us. Hopefully we will be back to see you soon.

Best Regards

Ian                                                                                                     July 08


 

Steve I just wanted to say thanks for the great day it was a good start to the stag doo. We have all agreed to return with partners very soon.

 

Regards

Paul                                                                                                  June 08

Thank you for all for an enjoyable couple of hours at the above event.

Have looked through the pictures and printed off a couple.

Best Regards

Hi Steve

 Thank you very much and your team for a great day. It all went very well and was good to see so many people “having a go”. Undoubtedly due to the approachability of your team and the great targets. It was so good to see all abilities and ages enjoying themselves, many of whom came back for more several times.

I hope that any contacts you made there will be useful.

Best Regards

Tim                                                                                                    June 08


Hi Steve

 

Bloody good day with plenty of laffs and great info and I think that proved true for all of us. Love the pics and write up so well done mate.

Thanks to Caroline for the 'back room job' that always never gets appreciated but means so much and thanks for your humour..

Shame we do not live closer so as to be a regular to your events but I think we will make one of your game days soon.

Will probably see you next in August at Fleet Ibex and I will get that 500+.

Take care

 

Paul                                                                                                    June 08


 

Hi Steve

 

Just a quick email to say thanks for a great day (even with the wind). You provided a lot of very useful information and with a lot of practice we should be sailing passed the 600 mark in no time :)

 

Thanks again and hopefully we will see you in August at Fleet Ibex.

 

Cheers

Andrew                                                                                                                                  June 08


 

Hi Steve & Caroline,

Just a quick email to say thank you for a superb day. It was great to mix with people of varying expertise and to find that the experienced archers were not at all "precious".  In fact they went out of their way to be helpful and were particularly considerate of us "archery virgins"!!  They were lovely with the "small people" and I know that contributed to the Boys enjoyment of their day even more.

 

We all drove home happy and contented, even if the feet were a little wrinkled and soggy.  James, Alexander and Matthew have all said they would love to come back and have another go, so hopefully we may meet again in the not too distant future. 

 

It was a fantastic environment to try archery for the first time, relaxed, friendly and fun, what more can you ask for on a day out with your nephews?!

 

Thanks again for a wonderful time.

All the best to you both,

Karen                                                                                                  May 08


 

Hi Steve,

We had a really good day out. It was tiring - all that concentrating, but very relaxing too.

We have taken a look at the photos, very impressed with Cynthia’s position in one of them!

Iain is really keen to organise an archery day for his 40th (beginning of October). It’s a bit awkward with family travelling down from Nottingham and children to get taken care of so we’re trying to think of a way of doing it. We’ll be in touch when we’ve though of something.

Thanks for a great day,

Best regards,

Caroline                                                                                               May 08


Hi Steve
Thank you and all your staff for a fantastic day on Saturday, as usual the weather was hand picked and the entertainment top drawer.

Steve B
PS
How much is the Masterclass day?                                                    
 May 08


Hi Steve,

Thank you for an amazing day out. All the girls had a wonderful time despite the weather and we loved the photos. We especially loved the name you gave to the day "Donna's (non) Hen weekend"! Brilliant!!!

Hope you had as much fun as we did,

We will definitely be recommending Robin Hood Events.

Thanks again

Take care

Simone                                                                                               May 08

 


 

Thanks Steve.

 

I saw the pics last night. Man, I look good in a moustache.

Thanks for a fantastic day.

 

We ended up in the Golden Lion with our socks on the radiator.

Everyone said they enjoyed it immensely, some of them admitting that they hadn't expected to. I think it's a combination of competition, a sense of achievement when you pinion a bunny, and the relaxed and fun atmosphere you create. I really do think I'll come again.

 

Thanks again, to you and your team. And I hope you find the last arrow I fired. Although there's a chance it became lodged in a light aircraft and is lost forever.

 

All the best,

Doug  and his merry men.                                                               May 08

 


Hi Steve,

Great pics!! Thanks so much for such an amazing day - we'll most definitely be back!!

Hi,
Just wanted to say thanks for a great day (5th May), I was one of the Rapley and co. group, the one that killed the Ostrich.
It had been years since I had done any archery, I thoroughly enjoyed myself as did my wife.  The only down side was a peeling nose, ears and forehead the next day from some quite extreme sun burn, well you live and learn, my advice always wear sunscreen.
Will definitely come again, I'm even tempted to get my own bow.
Cheers
Mike and Mel                                                                 
May 08


Hail to the (robin) hoodies!

I got burnt too! Another fantastic day of archery goodness provided by you sterling people. This may easily become  a regular Rapley/Richards (& friends) event!
 
The practice has evidently paid off, and no one had a strop this time. More people definitely equalled more fun. Shell and I will be back for some special events no doubt and I can use my sexy new 45 pounder. All I need is some arrows for it, all perfectly, (and geekily) weighed and balanced too!

Another huge thanks to you all from us all!
John & Shell                                                                                        May 08
Thanks Steve
 
I have shared the link and we are now having a good laugh at the concentration on people's faces trying to spear those animals!  I fear we have created a monster in Marc who probably slept wearing his medal last night!
 
Thanks to you and your team for a great day out - it was fun and memorable, even if we are all a little sun burnt now!
 
Cheers
Katharine                                                                                                May 08

 

Thanks for yesterday. Everyone had a great  day and were enthusing about it when we met for lunch today.

I was amazed at how well so many of them did.  No red faces, except those with sunburn.

Cheers for the photos. See you later.

Rob                                                                                                       APRIL 08


 

Steve and co!
 
Just wanted to let you know that we had a really fantastic day yesterday.  Ian said it was one of the best birthdays ever!  We all had fun and are talking about doing it again soon!  Maybe once the sunburn has calmed down a bit!! Please thank Wendy for me (I didn't get to thank her personally). She was especially helpful after finding out that I had only recently had knee surgery and enabled me to enjoy the day without having to walk too far.  Many thanks again to all your team, but special thanks to you Steve for making organising this group event so effortless! 
 
Rachel                                                                                                    APRIL 08
 

 

Greetings Steve,

 

Boy are you quick at getting things on line. What can I say but "What a day!" everyone really enjoyed every minute of their time spent with you and your instructors. The whole day from start to finish was brilliant. The food was excellent and at just the right time to take a break before getting in to tournament shooting. We will most definitely be coming back with those who have already been and new students who will love to chance to get to grips with archery for the first time.

 
We all trooped off to my cousins pub in Shoreham after and spent the night there to wake up with a blanket of snow and of course the resulting mass snowball fight before heading home so all in all it was a superb weekend away.
 
I really can't thank you enough, I am so glad that I contacted you and arranged the day.
Many many thanks
Pete                                                                                                         APRIL 08
 

Hi Steve,

 
Thanks for a brilliant day we both really enjoyed ourselves!! (although i am aching today! ) The photo's are fab ill send you some of the one's we took if you like?
 
Zoe & Mark                                                                                                APRIL 08
 

Dear Steve and Caroline,
 
Thank you for such a great day - we both thoroughly enjoyed ourselves and feel that if we can attempt, succeed and still feel good in the pouring rain then we'll have to do it again. A really great day with lovely people ; both of you and your other clients made it a memorable experience.
 
Re-reading that last paragraph I appear to have 'overthetopism'; it's probably the effect of thawing out in the shower, but even so we still really enjoyed it and once we've been up the trees at Leeds Castle we'll be back.
 
As we drove east the sun came out and it's been shining brilliantly for the last 2 hours!   MARCH  08


Steve and Caroline,
Thanks for a really great day yesterday.
Archery was great fun and the food was excellent and the company was even better.
The photos are good and will be a good memento to show our families and friends.
Thanks again.
Mick, Darren and Drew.                                                                                      
MARCH  08


Hi Steve,

Just a quick note to say thanks very much to you and Caroline for the excellent day on Wednesday. Gayle and I had a great time and we’ll definitely be back!

Thanks Matt                                                                                                 FEBRUARY  08


Hi Steve,
  Thanks for that, it was an awesome day!

Take care,
Alex                                                                                                               FEBRUARY  08


Hi to you all at Robin Hood Events,

Having given my parents (both early 60's) one of your gift vouchers in Dec 06 and having the privilege of my wife & myself joining them in 07 and having one of the best days out we have had in very very long time, & due to you recommendation we made a long weekend of it by staying at Reynolds Farm B&B.

There are so many companies running experience days, I wouldn't be surprised if you would be able to get one down the petrol station soon. I found out about your experience through word of mouth & you are one of the best kept secrets, & I believe unique. I love the warmth & friendliness from start to finish, from the first greeting & shake of the hand to the final goodbye, & not forgetting the bacon butty breakfast & wonderful lunch, all prepared & served in primitive environment. I thought another nice touch was how many pictures were taken & how quick you had them on the website.

Once again to sum up - you guys are STARS

...my folks have thrown down the gauntlet for a return challenge so I look forward to seeing you on Saturday 17th May 2008.

Regards Robert T.S                                                                                             JANUARY  08


Hi Steve,

just wanted to say a really big thank you from 4 of The A-team for Saturday.  We had a thoroughly entertaining day and we are planning a return trip in the new year - this time we hope to draft in BA and Murdoch.
The advice on hand was excellent (thanks Becky!) and the food was top rate.  You have a real good thing going on there and we all wish you success for the future.
All the best,
Michael, Gary, James and Stuart
                                                                                                                         OCTOBER  07

 

Steve,               

 Just like to thank you and your team for a great day made better by the unusually great weather we had for October.

It was particularly refreshing to see the enthusiasm displayed by yourself and colleagues and you kept us well entertained and fed throughout the day.

A lot of thought and work has obviously gone in to designing the field archery activities which maintained our interest and had us eager to try out the next zone.

Although we were in the company of established archers, we never at any time felt disadvantaged or made to feel as ‘non belonging novices’.

I look forward to attending one of your Master class sessions in the near future as well as arranging a corporate day for my Fire Service colleagues.

Best Wishes,

Nick                                                                                                                  OCTOBER  07


 

We all had a great time Steve, thanks again to you and all the staff.

 

We are thinking for arranging a group outing at some point in the future (might be in to next year now seeing as we are already at the end of September!) because a lot of our partners liked the sound of it and wanted to come along.

I'll be in touch.
Thanks  David                                                                                                  
SEPTEMBER 07


Steve, the feedback on the day was that it was a great success so a big thankyou to you and your team for organizing everything so well, even the weather.

I am sure that everyone here will not hesitate to recommend your company.

Duncan                                                                                      SEPTEMBER 07


Hi Steve,
 
Thank you for what was again a really brilliant day out. Everyone's still talking about it and had a really great time! I'm sure you'll be seeing many of them (and of course me and Lillo!) again soon.
Thanks again, had SUCH a great time today. If you'd like me to send any of the photos I will, looking forward to seeing the ones on the website.
Take care and speak to you soon.

Sarah                                    SEPTEMBER 07


Hi Steve
Well I just have to say that it was absolutely "The Ultimate Archery Experience"

Thank you for a great day on Saturday, it far exceeded all my hopes and expectations. Getting everybody to commit to gather early on a Saturday morning in a field in the middle of Kent was a bit of an issue and if it hadn't been at the very least good, I was going to get a load of stick!
But I needn't have worried because it was superb and EVERYBODY I spoke to both in our group and others were all saying how great it was.

Your presentation and instruction, your excellent team, the different ranges, the quality lunch (on proper plates!), the good weather (thank you) and the use of the stag/wally pictures made it a fantastic day. The
fact that there wasn't one second of "hanging around" was also great. I have already bored people senseless about it at work, so I certainly hope I will be able to send more business your way, and of course come again myself.
I've seen the pictures and write up on your website - again what a fab service.
Thanks so much - It made my job as Niall's best man a lot easier!
  
Best wishes
Justin

Dear Steve
 
Thank you and your team very much for a lovely day on Saturday 15th.  Great weather, great company, and fantastic food as usual.  All our Marley lot enjoyed it, those who won - and those who didn't (me). 
Many thanks once again - we'll be back!
Regards
Tracey                                                                                                             SEPTEMBER 07

 

Steve
Thank you so much for a fantastic day, we all had a blast! 
The photos are brilliant and really capture the laughs and fun that was had by all, not forgetting the natural talent that shone through!!
Please thank your team for all their help and assistance and beware that we will be back very soon!
Kind regards
Amanda                                                                                                          SEPTEMBER 07

Good morning Steve,

Just to say, as I am sure you are aware, our day with you was so enjoyed by us all, and you made each of us feel special, and comfortable in our varied ability - or "non-ability"  The whole day passed in a flash, and having viewed the photos so soon, just endorsed the enjoyment of the day.  A great way to celebrate anything, aided by you and your helpers/staff.  We look forward to our next visit.
Buzzie.                                                                                        SEPTEMBER 07

                                                               

Morning Steve

What a fantastic day.  We had such fun,  Everyone enjoyed themselves, and looks like they

Want another one held next year.

Photo’s are great.

If we want copies, can you put any on a disk for us

Regards

Hello there Steve,
It was a wicked day and I didn't really say thanks to you and the other folks
for making it such a fun day so can you pass on my "Thanks for the wicked
day out!"
to all please?

I will definitely spread a good word about Robin Hood and will suggest
it to some work colleagues for a fun day out.
I would also try not to be such a stroppy cow next time!

Lucy          
                                                                                                      SEPTEMBER 07


Thanks for another great day Steve

Archery at Robin Hood Events is such a fun filled day despite the weather, the chicken was succulent and tasty as ever. Please thank Caroline and girls for all their hard work and hospitality they showed to all who came on Sunday. Pity the wind and rain affected my teams shooting, we both know the weather aided all those bad archers blowing their wayward arrows on target and blowing our extremely accurate arrows off target but that's how it goes I suppose. HA. HA. I will ring you soon to book another days archery god bless you all. Look forward to seeing you all again.              

 Many Thanks Mark.                                                                                                 AUGUST  07
 

Hi Steve
Great day yesterday, really enjoyed ourselves. Getting a trophy was just the icing on the cake. I know Steve and Dan were absolutely made up.
I've been showing the photographs to some people I work with and it looks like there's enough interest here, for me to put a small team of work buddies together. (In the photo's I'm the one grimacing like a bulldog chewing a wasp just after releasing an arrow btw)
I could do with some dates for the next events so I can organise. Do you run an event every Sunday , are some booked up , do some days cost more than others, all those sorts of questions...
Thanks again
Will                                                                                                                        
AUGUST  07


Hi Steve,

 
Just need to say, not just from me, but from all who attended, a massive thank you to you and all at Robin Hood for such an amazing day!  Everyone has been saying how great it was doing the archery and that we will all definitely be back!
Photos are fantastic!
Thank you so much for all your help, and we will definitely see you all again in the near future.
Top Drawer!
Regards
Darren and the entire group of The Cook Stag Day 2007 !!!

Hi Steve,
Thanks for a really brilliant day! We've all been raving about it, we'll be
going again and bringing some more with us!
See you soon!
Michelle                                                                                                                AUGUST  07


Hey Steve,

 
The Luton crew had a top day on Saturday (4TH AUG), and I have a sneaking suspicion we'll be back again in the VERY near future, in greater numbers too! The whole day was really well planned out, excellent value for money, laid back (everyone there was really cool, even the more advanced guys, with their fancy-pants equipment), breakfast and dinner we're top banana, and your patter would put a game-show host to shame! We we're all still totally buzzing when we got home later that night.
 
So, in summary, WICKED!
Thanks to you and your team of complete dudes!
 
Neil Samuels (team DAVE)                                                                                       AUGUST  07

 

Hello Steve,
 
Just saw the great photos - really was a truly enjoyable day. The sooner I have another go the better! Left a flyer at the B&B I stayed in and will recommend to many of my colleagues as "parent escape fun" for the school holidays. When I have a corporate booking I will give you a bell ASAP.
 
Thanks for the experience - will treasure the pics - especially that one with evil Barney!
 
Sara                                                                                                                        AUGUST  07

 

Steve

I just wanted to let you know what a great time we all had yesterday, we even talked about buying a bow on the way home!  It was a very relaxed day, we didn't feel rushed to get through the activities, the food was excellent and the events were loads of fun.  I never knew firing arrows into in-animate objects could be so satisfying!
We look forward to returning sooner rather than later!
All the best,

Hi Steve,
 
Just a quick message to say a big thank you on behalf of 'team Dave' to yourself and to all that helped for a bloody excellent days entertainment! We will be back soon for more action (we need to considering how rubbish we were!) If there was a medal for amount of arrows busted then I would have conquered!
 
Keep those arrows straight and true,
 
All the best, from team Dave (and Sean and Alan)                                          AUGUST  07

 

Dear Steve,

What a truly brilliant day, thank you!

Your master class has opened up for us a whole new side to archery, one which exorcises the reliance upon wheels, sights, stabilisers and all those other gadgets and gizmos by bringing it back to you, the archer. Scary stuff – remind me, how the heck does it work… ?

 

An extremely well run day, thoroughly enjoyable, instructive and enlightening.  We’re looking forward to turning up to our first 3D shoot where we aren’t accused of being the ‘twiddlers’ – that’ll freak them out J

Many thanks also to Big Jim for his excellent support and guidance and to Caroline for looking after us so well with the food and refreshments; a cut above! 

Here’s to the next time.

Martin and Louise (slug killer) Joy

PS thanks to Giles for his persistence in finally getting us there - nice one!         AUGUST  07

 


 

Hey Steve,

Thanks for a great day on Arry's stag do.  Great weather, great day and great fun (even though our team came last :-) )!  I am sure I speak for all of us when I say thanks to you and your team for making us feel as welcome as we did.  I have no doubt we will be back in some form, so you better brush up on your tug-o-war ;-)

Cheers, Eddie                                                                                              JULY  07

 


Hi Steve,
Thanks for a superb Masterclass shooting day. Great company, good food and top location. 'Field' is clearly where I am destined, 3D turkeys watch out!!!!
The coaching skills and enthusiasm were such a pleasure to see, it is clear that you have a passion for all things of the bow and this made the day so enjoyable. I intend to pick-up where we left off today and
the club shoot on Sunday will see me back in the 'zone'! (not certain whether we have any plastic animals to hunt at the moment...will have to lean on the treasurer...)

Kind Regards
Matt the Older...

Hi Steve,

I can't believe that a month has gone past already since we all came down for our archery day with you. I am sure that Stella responded and told you that we all enjoyed it enormously, partly due to the excellent weather and your organisation - including the archery games (the sheep & the wolf etc.) and photos. We did have a caption competition following the event with a key photo being put up in our kitchen here in the office - something about the rutting season !! I was amazed that my old skills came back strong enough to win the event as I hadn't done any archery since about 1882.   

Having thoroughly enjoyed the day, I did say as I left that I would come again and was interested in acquiring a bow from you to pursue the sport. The question is what do you run at weekends, how far ahead does one have to book, and what's the cost ?

Regards Alan K                                                                                             JULY  07     


 

Robin Hood Events
 
Thank you for a fantastic Archery experience at Canterbury, last Saturday 07.07.07.  My Brother, and I thoroughly enjoyed the day, and the challenging Archery course you presented us with.  The food was good as well, I would have no hesitation in recommending the event to my friends and colleagues.
 
I thought you might like a copy of this photo I took of my brother Steve (Robin of Catford!) on the day which I was lucky enough to catch just right!
Thanks again

Dear Steve and Caroline,
 
Have just got back and have seen the photos on your website, they are great and a wonderful reminder of our super day!! We all thoroughly enjoyed ourselves, learnt so much and made some new friends!!
 
We really can't thank you enough for arranging the Master Class for us at such short notice and are very impressed with the professionalism and knowledge you obviously have.
 
Once again THANK YOU very much for a great afternoon, will definitely see you again soon!!

Stave thanks very much for a lovely experience and I believe that I am now converted to the wonderful world of archery.
If there was not You and Caroline to make that day so special I do not think I would enjoy it so much.
Kind regards

Hi Steve

 
Thanks so much for an absolutely brilliant day, everybody without exception had an amazing time. We all want to come to learn more and become experts, I don't think it's the last you will be seeing of us! Everyone is proudly showing off their medals and there is a real buzz around the office today. Please pass on our thanks to Brian the amazing coach and to Caroline for cooking for all of us. Thanks again for all your hard work and brilliant organisation skills!
