Joe- I live in King County but I like to hunt the Oly Penninsula. I would recommend the Archery Pro shop at Skookum Archery range in Puyallup. Good guys and they have a decent 3d shoot on Thursdays for $10.00. Theres a real nice walk through range you can shoot anytime for $5 and I've never seen more than 2 other people out there.

That pro shop is Great NW Fishing and Archery.  It's owned and operated by Doug Hyder.  The club is Skookum Archers.  Doug has been around for a while now, and he knows what he is doing.

I have to agree with old dog, Doug out there at Great northwest fishing and archery is great and he definitely knows what he is doing and his customer service is second to none.  Great place to go!

Doug will do you right.....knows how to set up a bow, I know there's a guy that has a pro shop out of his house up in Enumclaw, but can't remember his name for the life of me :dunno:

 Hunting around there can be hard at times, Hancock has pay to access up the White river, the Coal mine has kind of quit giving out access a while back but I'd stop in and ask them especailly for archery and there's some little pockets of timberland that can be accessed. I just saw a buck Sunday near Enumclaw that was probably 120 B/C so there are some pigs laying around here.

Myself and Dustin07 are born and raised Enumclaw.  I'll definitely point you in the right direction if you want to see some good land.... feel free to PM.

The guy in Enumclaw who runs his shop I think is traditional only.
