Before Cupid became a skilled marksman, his misfired arrows frequently led to star-crossed love and involuntary navel piercings. Channel the winged matchmaker with today's Groupon: for $50, you get a one-hour basic archery lesson for two people at BearPaw Archery in Wasilla (a $100 value). All equipment will be provided.

BearPaw Archery's certified instructor leads aspiring sharpshooters through a basic archery lesson on the facility’s 30-yard indoor range. The 60-minute introductory session familiarizes greenhorns with the Genesis bow’s anatomy, as well as safety principles to ensure proper weapon use. The archery ace helps apprentices determine eye dominance and draw length before tweaking pupils’ shooting form, release technique, and battle cry. Once properly positioned, students can practice their aim, although the instructor may modify the lesson to cater to an archer's specific needs. At the end of the hour, arrowsmiths leave with the ability to shoot a compound bow and pierce pinned-up job rejection letters.
