Where's the archery range?
Look for the entrance at the back of the range parking lot.

Question...are you shooting the right arrows?
Too many just buy what looks good or what's handed to them.

There are other factors involved, but for most archers this will provide the right stiffness for your bow weight and arrow length.

The range is open whenever you can see to shoot the targets, and it's free to members,
though donations toward upkeep are appreciated anytime. As with the rifle range, non-members are welcome , provided they are accompanied by a member.
Shoots are open to everyone, though there is a modest fee.

 

 

 

3D Archery began simply as a means of more realistic practice for bowhunters and has developed into a shooting sport in its own right. The targets are cast foam versions of lifesized game animals and they are arranged at various yardages throughout a woodland course. In our range, expect to see targets partially concealed by greenry, behind trees, uphill, downhill, and even one across a beaver dam on the far bank. All are placed as you might expect to see the real thing when hunting. It's challenging, no doubt about it.

 

This is a private range for Knox County Fish & Game Association members and their guests.

 

BE ADVISED

• Alcoholic beverages are strictly forbidden
• Members may have a maximum of 2 guests at any given time.
• Broadheads may not be used except at the Broadhead Lane to the left of the entrance.
• Respect the course and your fellow archers.

Our range requires constant maintenance. You can do your part by moving fallen limbs out from underfoot while walking the course. You could also offer to lend Sarah a hand with ongoing range maintenance and improvements. You can contact her through out Facebook page.
