Mounted Archery at

Secret Pride's Mounted Archers LLC

We are ready to take on a new group of Archers!

Ready to try a new discipline? Ready to take up a new outdoor activity this spring and summer? Want to learn how to do primative archery - better yet - from horseback? A new adventure welcomes you at Secret Pride Stables! Come be a part of our Mounted Archery Team, Secret Pride's Mounted Archers, LLC. We are amongst the first mounted archery clubs on the Delmarva affiliated with the Mounted Archery Association of the Americas (MA3). I am currently working towards being listed on the National Instructors Registry and am looking forward to receiving my IHAA gradings. With our team and club members we look forward to particpating in Gradings, Postal Matches, archery challenges, and maybe eventually be able to host our own competitions.

So sign on up and let us be the ones to introduce you to the world of archery on horseback! As always safety is our upmost concern so to begin this adventure:

We will start you on foot and review important safety measures

Get you properly equipped and educated with the assistance of our Archery Instructors. You will eventually need your own shooting glove, armguard, bow, arrows, quiver and riding helmet

Ensure you are ready to handle your bow on horseback with balancing exercises and training skills before getting started on your horse

And finally mounting up and taking your first shot from horseback (you must already be a capable rider to participate in mounted archery, Intermediate 1 level riders preferred, qualified Novice riders accepted)

From here on up we will continue to develop our skills both on and off the horse, and begin to introduce and participate in different drills, courses and training

Archery requires balance, coordination, accuracy, a calm and composed demeanor, precision, and patience. With practice you gain abilities in drawing your arrows, nocking them, and handling your bow. To become a skilled archer, the above list is important and requires dedication and practice, not to mention we are doing this on horseback!

So here we are taking an old art into new times, come and learn the skill of horseback archery. Mount up, nock it, aim and shoot!
