Default Where do you shoot?

I used to shoot my bow at the small archery club here in Lancaster Park, however it is currently in the process of being moved/reconstructed. I used to shoot at SPFGA however it is too far.

Just wondering where you guys go to shoot? Anything outdoors in the Edmonton North / Namao area that are taking new members?

Hogie, I run the base club, I sent you a PM. It's nothing fancy just a 120yd conventional range, ya I know it's longer than needed, but some ppl like to practice long. As well acts as a buffer zone for arrows, but it's sunrise to sunset access 7 days a week. There are a few more perks, I'll elaborate on later.

This is awesome news! Except I'm posted this summer so won't be able to use it much. Will definately try and get out there as much as I can. I keep losing arrows in the field I go to.

I live in Morinville as well. Should do beers and talk archery sometime. I've got a target set up in my driveway as well but only 25 meters.
