Crossbow in Bournemouth

View Activity FAQs
The stag taking aim for his first shot on a crossbow

Have you got a steady enough aim to hit the bullseye?

Crossbows are our latest activity at our Bournemouth centre. In our poll over 70% of stags voted for crossbows as the next activity they would like to get their hands on, and so Max Events has delivered with a fantastic new shooting range. Crossbows date from the 4th century and have been used for hunting and in warfare, as well as shooting apples off peoples heads.

At Max Events you won't get to do any of this. You will try your hand at the latest self cocking pistol, small in size but still capable of stopping anything in its tracks. You will have standard target faces to find your aim, moving onto our dueling tree and potentially onto our zombie undead targets.

Your crossbow activity is combined with either our .22 HK416 assault rifles, axe throwing and archery for an ultimate shooting combo, or for an activity package to remember, with our Rage buggies, .22 rimfire rifles and axe throwing for 4 hours of prime activity madness.

All situated at at our activity centre nestled in the Dorset countryside close to Weymouth, Poole and Bournemouth. Perfect for a stag and hen party on the south coast.

Crossbow Frequently Asked Questions

  • How does the activity run?

  • These are deadly weapons so for safety we will operate between 2 people shooting at one time. We offer practice and then scored competition.

  • Does Crossbow require a lot of strength to take part?
    Not necessarily, the bows can reach the same weight as an air rifle or shotgun and the objective is to keep the bow steady as you squeeze the trigger. This requires more skill and concentration than just strength. 
  • What is the minimum/maximum group size?
  • On Saturday we operate a minimum group size of 6. up to a maximum team size of 12 people, if your group size is larger than this you will be split over 2 or more activities or you will be provided with more time. If you have a group of less than 6 people we suggest you call in the week running up to the day you would like to come, as we may have some space we can offer you, in this case we reserve the right to mix you with another party, alternatively you can pay for 6 people. In certain circumstances such as a small group where your health and safety could be at risk from over confidence, we may reduce this time. Alternatively if you are acting beyond what Max Events, or our instructors deem safe/acceptable, you will be asked to leave the activity. No refunds will apply for misuse of equipment.

  • How long does the session last?
    We mainly run a combination of activities at our Bournemouth venue. It does depend on which package you have booked as to how long you will be on site. A package with four activities can last between 3 ½ hours to 4 hours.
  • How long will I be on site?
    This is dependant on the package booked but we ask that you arrive half hour prior to the start of your activities, and you will need at least 15 minutes from when the activities have finished to getting in your car.
  • Am I insured?
    Max Events carries £5 million public liability insurance. This covers us and you in the event of our negligence. You are provided with all instruction necessary to complete the activity safely, if you operate any equipment beyond your ability or the boundaries that we provide you will not be covered, it does not cover you for acts of stupidity or if an incident arises beyond our control.
  • Can we operate in any weather? 
    Unfortunately we cannot control the weather. In most cases we work very hard to ensure your event runs smoothly and with the required activities in your booking. If we feel we have a health and safety issue we would try and make contact in the week prior to your arrival and offer some alternative suggestions. In extreme circumstances on the day we may have to offer an alternative activity which carries an equal or greater value.
  • Can I wear fancy dress? 
    Yes, if you like the look of William Tell, or the guy from The Walking Dead it’s not a problem
