ARCHERY NOW A YEAR ROUND ACTIVITY There is now a new schedule and place for archery. Shooting will be on Tuesday evenings starting at 6:00 PM. We will now shoot year round and not take a break during hunting season. The new location for the archery range is on the 100 competition rifle range. (east of the public line) We start shooting at 6:00 but your help in getting set up before that is appreciated. 3-D targets and bag or block targets will be available to shoot. You must pass a shooting proficiency test to shoot at the 3-D targets. The fee is $5.00 and shooters under 18 are free. Any type of bow can be used but the arrows must be tipped with field or target points (no broadheads). If you are a club member, and wish to shoot your bow during the time the range is open to the public, contact one of the discipline leaders for information.
