Buckhorn Archery Club Winter League

The Buckhorn Archer’s winter leagues is about to start up. If you have a bow and some arrows, come and join the fun. It will get you out of the house and off the couch for some fun once a week. You will also get in shooting shape for next year archery bow hunt. It is something your entire family can do together. Plus it is just plain fun!
Although the winter league started Jan. 9, you can join any time, all season long.
Registration is still $20 a single, or $30 for a family. You must purchase insurance and the cost is $7 per year. If you are helping a young shooter you also have to purchase the insurance even if you are not shooting a bow. No exception, everyone who is participating must have insurance.
If you are a person 18 or younger and are still in school the nightly fee is free for you, but you still have to pay the registration fee and for insurance.
If you have a child and you would like them to get involved come and talk with us. Archery helps kids have confidence in themselves.
We will be having 3-D indoor shoots as well as our annual 3D Shoot up Huntington Canyon in May. If you are a dedicated hunter you can get your hours with the club by helping through out the league year (talk with Randy).
