Shooting in the garage

Just to remove the element of speculation from this thread, the bylaws surrounding the discharge of an arrow within the city limits are governed by bylaw number 20M88, which states:

"10. No person shall shoot an arrow from a bow of any nature, over, across, or along any portion of a Street, public place, or upon any land owned by The City unless otherwise authorized pursuant to a bylaw of The City of Calgary, or in the case of a Park, unless authorized by the Director, Calgary Parks or his designate.
(B/L 23M2003, 2004 January 12)
(B/L 7M2016, 2016 February 18)"

So just make sure you're not setting up your target on your neighbour's lawn, across the street.
