You must be kidding! This is not your honey hole, it's an archery range! Pay it forward, it goes a long way...

free advertising for what looks like a great range.

I was just being cautious that's all. You guys know how this site can be at times. :chuckle:
i meant nothing by it.
:hello:
I'm sure they would love some new members.
I'm actually very surprised that you guys haven't heard of this place. I'm sure some of you have heard of this place though.
I have been to, and researched a lot of ranges and places to shoot and this one is by far the best.
Very clean, very kept up, very challenging and a great area to shoot.

Cedar River Bowmen is proud to be the oldest continuously operating Archery Club in Washington State. Started in the early 1950’s, Cedar River Bowmen was originally founded in Issaquah but was relocated to our present day site approximately eight years ago.
Nestled in the foothills of the Cascade Mountains in the shadow of Mt. Rainier on 42 acres of timbered land just south of Black Diamond, Washington, we offer many hard-to-find amenities for a club of our size. We have four permanent, year-round walk-through courses with at least 14 targets on each course. Two of these are animal courses and two are field courses. The walk-through courses offer some of the most varied terrain around with shots over water, up hills, down hills and from elevated shooting platforms. Our walk-through courses are large enough to allow the Course Captains’ wide discretion in target placement thus ensuring each 3-D tournament is a unique experience.
Our members can also shoot indoors in our clubhouse during poor weather or instruct the young or beginning archer in a private setting. Rich in tradition, Cedar River Bowmen offers exclusive, private access for our members and families 24 hours a day, seven days a week. Each member has a key to our clubhouse, gates, and ranges.
We are proud to host a variety of large archery events each year, including our “signature” event the last weekend of each July. Our annual “Bownanza” tournament is a three-day extravaganza with over $10,000 in door prizes, raffles and money dots. We also have a variety of other shooting events including smoker and night shoots. “Bownanza” is considered to be the premiere 3-D tournament by many in the Pacific Northwest.
In addition to our ability to host major northwest shoots, Cedar River Bowmen also boasts quiet, private and serene settings among the evergreens, and a quiet escape from day to day life. We offer primitive camping facilities, a playground area for kids, picnic areas, and a place where families or groups can get away, as well as share their love for the sport of archery.
Whether it's time to practice, compete in a 3D tournament, or to sight in your bow for hunting season, Cedar River Bowmen is the place to be. Come see what Cedar River Bowmen can offer you and your family. You’ll be glad you did!
Go sign up today its a great place to spend the weekend.
have fun guys!

The range looks good. Too bad it's an hour away.
Post by: backwoods_boy on June 29, 2009, 12:48:34 PM
I live in totem lake it it took about 1.15 to get there.
They have a very resonable price to join and its pro rated so if you sign up now its only 60+ bucks or something until jan.
the best part is its open when you can go. 24-7-365
Join up guys its really a great place.
AND i wanted to add that they also have FREE camping for family's that is very useful....

I stand corrected. Kenmore is 325 dollars for new members. While they have nice faciliites, it simply is not that nice unless they are serving me a dinner every time I show up.

Actually it is as far as I think. That's the problem.

it's actually further than i thought it would be.
1.15 hours from where?
Post by: jackelope on June 29, 2009, 03:08:58 PM
you can keep the one and reuse it next time, but if you forget it or lose it, you'll buy another one.

i usually only shoot 40 and closer.
I just got into archery so 40 yards is pushing it for me, I can hit the target at 40 but just not with much accuracy.
looks like a sweet range though. I will have to wait a while to get a membership anywhere due to all the $ Ive been spending with getting a new bow and e-collar for my new bird dog.

tried my new range finder and it works pretty well.
problem was i only showed up with 4 arrows and had to keep those all day. and i ended up with 2 left at the end of the day.
the two i lost were at 75 and 80 yards.
didn't exactly range those right on my 40 yard pins. :IBCOOL:
haha

Very challenging, uphill/downhill/close and far/over creeks and through the woods (I know, sounds like a Christmas carol).
Anyone in my area should check it out.
