Title: Walk through-3D range
Post by: Angus on December 08, 2010, 10:18:57 AM: I'm fairly new to SW Wa. and I would like to find a walk through archery range. There was/is a pretty cool range on the south hill of Puyallup I used to use alot and would like to find something like that a little closer to home (Kelso/Longview). Any help is greatly appreciated. ;)

Post by: Angus on December 08, 2010, 12:32:10 PM: Yeah, there are a couple indoor ranges close by me, I just get a little bored shooting at the same wall over and over.

I also have a buddy that just started bow hunting this year, he's a decent shooter on targets that he knows the distance, he is not very good at judging unknown distances. Thought an outdoor range would probably be alot more help then shooting at the same, 30 yard indoor range all the time.

:yeah: The guys at Lucky Shot are great. They have an indoor shoot that starts Jan 4th also that should be a lot of fun.
