We are a motley bunch of Traditional and Barebow Archers from the Telok Blangah Archery Club. Our home range at Telok Blangah St. 31 is a 1-hectare field where we can shoot up to 70m, a very fortunate thing in the context of our Little Red Dot city state.
We like Traditional and Barebow Archery, stripped of “most” of the bells and whistles of modern archery. Maybe we are a bit nostalgic but we love the demands of learning how to connect with our bows. We have learnt how to tune our equipment … after which we spend inordinate amounts of
time trying to tune our disobedient bodies and minds! We also enjoy each others’ company and frequently hold mini competitions to keep ourselves sharp and motivated. This group was founded by Mads in 2014 and has been growing at a comfortable pace. We hope that more (especially from Telok Blangah) will join us to discover the joy the magic of Traditional and Barebow Archery… in the cultivation of a fit body and a still mind.

Hello Patricia,
Thanks for your interest. The TBAC year plan is still being firmed up as we have just emerged out of Covid restrictions. We suggest that you direct your question to tbac.secretary@gmail.com
Alternatively, you can also approach the many commercially run ranges in Singapore. FYI, TBAC is not a commercial range but an interest group run by volunteers under the umbrella of Telok Blangah CC & the People’s Association.
Best regards,
Eagles of TBAC
