A true original, F+B slingshot is an innovator in all-ages recreation with a first-in-class themed indoor slingshot activity center and retail shop dedicated to all things slingshot. F+B offers slingshot target shooting games and sports in a safe, fun, and tested environment. The themed shooting gallery is accessible for most ages and abilities and is designed for safe and rewarding play. There is a small retail store carrying slingshot frames and accessories and a gift shop section where you can find a cool souvenir!
There is no food or beverage service at F+B, but there is a selection of packaged refreshments (snacks and non-alcoholic beverages) for guests to enjoy while playing. Signed waivers are required for all play and there are no slingshot sales to minors.
This local mom-n-pop business has been successfully operating for nearly 3 years, gaining valuable experience in safely running programs in slingshot games and sports and hosting events while promoting a culture of responsible play. The themed slingshot gallery avoids targets representing animals, vehicles, buildings, and people. Guests are required to wear provided safety glasses and are issued program slingshots fitted with lightweight latex bands matched in power to the mass of lightweight rubber training ammo. The setups used in the facility are customized for each player (be sure to include each player's height when booking online), elevating both safety and customer experience through increased accuracy. Customers receive safety instruction, a fitted slingshot, required safety glasses, and continual safety monitoring. You'll choose your lane's theme in advance when booking online.
Lane themes include Enchanted Forest, Carnival, Sports and Games, and Rock ‘n’ Roll. This activity is great for kids and adults, company outings and holiday parties, corporate team-building, date nights, kids, birthday parties, and other private events. Reservations are for 1 hour, including instruction. An hour of play typically costs around $30 per person. Look out for DIY workshops and other special events in addition to more advanced instruction in slingshot skills with opportunities for competition and league play. F+B expects to open sometime this fall at 99 Main Street in the downtown Bristol Cultural District.
