MIT's Department of Athletics, Physical Education and Recreation offers this twelve session course for beginning and novice archers using recurve indoor target bows. Sessions cover equipment care and setup, range safety rules, proper stance, and shooting technique, building toward scoring systems used in indoor target competition. Students practice repeatedly on an indoor range, progressing from basic form to competitive scoring formats. The course is part of MIT OpenCourseWare's physical education offerings, providing the syllabus and session structure used for in-person instruction rather than video lectures. It suits anyone wanting a structured introduction to target archery fundamentals, including bow handling, aiming, and range etiquette, before attempting outdoor or field archery disciplines.
