Bow Hunter Tune Up

Share

Come out and join us at the Stand-up Archery Range for the Bow Hunters Tune UP! This event is designed to be a practical shooting setting to better prepare the shooter for the hunting season. Any type of bow is welcome, including crossbows. We will be shooting out to 20 yards, 30 yards and 40 yards from the ground and from 13’ and 17’ elevated platforms. You can even shoot out to 70 meters (77 yards) if you wish.
In the later weeks of this event, we set up 3D targets to add more hunting realism to this event. Also, there is a broadhead pit where you can tune your bow to shoot your hunting arrows with broadheads.
Another feature of Hunters Tune Up is that you will earn certificates that verify your proficiency as you progress through the various shooting distances. WWCCA club certificates are awarded for meeting required shooting scores from both the ground and shooting platforms. In addition, you can earn NAA (National Archery Association) certification shooting at longer distances of 30, 50, and 70 meters! This is a great opportunity to learn how to shoot the longer distances that are often needed when hunting those western states!
We supply targets and back-stops. You supply the fun! This is also a great opportunity to share info about hunting equipment whether it is the “tried and true” or the “latest and greatest”! Plus, at the end of the season we have a picnic with great food and refreshments, and the opportunity to swap hunting stories!
