"If you’re in Worcester, you have to come to Farshot — and definitely ask for Paola! She made the entire experience so much fun. We got to try both the axes and the shurikens, which was such a cool and unexpected way to relieve stress. Paola went above and beyond with her customer service — she even shared tips about visiting Puerto Rico and gave us ideas for new places to experience. She’s welcoming, knowledgeable, and makes sure everyone has a g..."

"I had an amazing experience at Far Shot in Worcester! Paula’s customer service was superb—she made the whole visit so pleasant and welcoming. Even though I originally booked axe throwing, she let us throw different items and taught us so much, including fun facts about Puerto Rico! We arrived late, but Paula didn’t rush us and even gave us extra time to enjoy everything. The atmosphere is great—they have archery, axe throwing, knife throwing, go..."

"We had such an amazing time at Far Shot! We tried out axes, knives, and archery and had a truly wonderful teacher in Amelia! She gave us tons of helpful pointers and made our date night so much fun. We will definitely be coming back because of the awesome experience we had which was definitely made better because of Amelia’s help. I would give way more stars if I could!"

"Had an great experience with Damien which included not only a wealth of general knowledge to the equipment being sold but also able to relate to the last time I was on skates, early 90s. He was able to walk me through some of the new changes in gear, especially skates and sticks. I had originally came there to get my skates sharpened, which btw was an amazing and comfortable transition for someone who has not been on skates for over 30 years. O..."

"What a great find! We had been to every consignment shop on the south shore to find catchers gear and couldn’t really find what we wanted. We were at a baseball tournament across the street from this place, wandered in and found everything we needed and more. Sales people were excellent and knowledgeable. Also had a glove restrung for a great price and done in a snap. Highly recommend this place!"

Stace Martin

"I stopped into Kleen N' Hard Sports to inquire about getting some new skates for myself and my 5 year old son. After renting skates at the local rink for 6 months, and really enjoying this hobby together, we decided to make the investment. We were fitted for correct sizing, given options between new and great condition used, and got what we needed without breaking the bank. The staff were very knowledgeable about the different skates. We were pro..."

"First time buying hockey equipment for our first hockey player. It’s an intimidating experience when you’re not sure what you need or how to select the right size. The staff was amazing. Took the time to help us select pre-owned equipment. Showed us the machine that is used for cleaning and disinfecting pre-owned equipment. Helped us pick the right sizes and patiently sat with my 7 year old grandson showing him how to put everything on and che..."
