Great start to 3D Wednesday Shoots! Thank you archers! We had a very safe & smooth running opportunity for archers to shoot at 3D animals. So much fun! We'd love feedback! Let us know about any suggestions/concerns you have. We might not act on everything, but we'll give it some consideration for sure! (And "yes", we're going to try to fix the sticker problems!!) The sign-ups for the next 2 week's shoot times are available, but not many spots left. We will release wee...k's 4, 5, and 6 sign-ups next week sometime. We'll announce here. Also, thank you for paying online. It's so much easier. We do take payments at the registration desk, but it MUST be exact change ($10/person). Pay online, done! Keep those arrows in the bonus rings!

If you haven’t shot the upper range for some time, give yourself a treat and go do it. Take your time and really enjoy. It’s really had some amazing work done to it. All the stations are awesome, fun targets to shoot. They’ll test your archery! Plus, you get awesome views!

Our friends over @ Predators Archery are having a great sale! It's time for a new bow...!!

Work party on Saturday, 8AM to around 1PM. Bring gloves and a mask. Even if you can’t stay the whole time, we appreciate any and all help. Lots to do! [**Please practice social distancing. If you’re not feeling well, stay home and get better!]

Our friends at Predator Archery have a new online store. They're running a good deal right now! Go get some of your holiday shopping started!

Thanks to those who came and pitched in at Sept.’s work party! More target bales were replaced, new bales compressed and banded, targets pasted, target faces replaced, vegetation maintenance, etc.! Great community effort! Our Range Master is working all the time. Stan B. has added 10 new steps at target #28. It’s like, an escalator, on the side of a hill. Amazing work Stan!

Work-party on Saturday. Range closed from 8:00AM to ~12 noon. Come help! We welcome any & all who would like to help maintain the range. If you can't work the whole time, no problem. Come for whatever time you can, we really appreciate all the help & so does the archery community!

Introducing.......... .....the new and improved target #14! The range crew, headed by Range Captain, Stan B., have done an amazing job! The new #14 is situated under some of the awesome oaks that call the range home. This is a max. 45 yard station. The target housing is in the shade, year round, so it makes it a more challenging shot due to the lighting difference. We traded distances with target station #2. Again, well done to the crew that made this happen &... especially Stan for spear-heading the project to completion. We hope all archers enjoy this new configuration. We it!

Photo mosaic of the Upper-14 (targets 15-28) of the 560 range! All sporting the new target housings! Amazing work by Stan, the BMB Range Captain, & his staff!

Great work-party today! Thanks for the people that came out and worked (and kept nice and socially distant!) You all are amazing!!

Well, we will have a work-party this coming Saturday, July 11th. Regular time: 8:00AM to ~12:00 noon. Don't worry if you can't commit to that entire time. Come for as much time as your schedule allows. Your time is appreciated and every little bit helps. Remember: ... * The range only stays usable & in good condition if people come out and participate in the work-parties. * You DO NOT have to commit to being at a work-party for the entire time. * Bring work gloves. * Bring a mask + hand sanitizer. * Practice "social distancing". Thank you! See you Saturday!

Upper range make-over is progressing! Here's the new target #16. Range-captain Stan is amazing! Along with his trusty assistant Dan, they've accomplished a lot of awesome work at the range! Thanks Stan & Dan!!

Work Party scheduled for this Saturday is cancelled. It's the 4th of July....go celebrate America! We might schedule a "make-up" work party for the following week. Watch for more info! Happy 4th!!!

Lovely morning up on "the hill". Here we're shooting the newly rebuilt target #28.
