Our Archery range is located at the end of the front Clubhouse parking lot, below and parallels the small Clubhouse Pond. The range consists of three target locations: 20, 30, and 40 yards with shooting positions designated by the bow holders.

​

The Archery Range is open year-round Monday thru Sunday from sunrise to sunset. You do not need to have a Range Card or attend a Range Orientation Class to use our Archery Range however you must be a Piqua Fish & Game member in good standing. 

​

The range is designed for 3D-style targets. The Club has targets that will be available during Club shoots. You may also use your own 3D targets but they must be placed in front of the permanent stands that designate the target locations. Only these areas are too be used. The use of broadheads is prohibited on the range and our targets unless otherwise noted at the target location. You may use block style targets as well, but they must be approved targets that would stop an arrow. There should be no glass in the range area. This range is for archery use only, there are to be absolutely no firearms on this range.
 

All archers must shoot from behind the same firing line. If there is more than one archer on the line shooting, you must take turns shooting. This will prevent cross firing of arrows.

​

If someone needs to go down the line to retrieve arrows, the same rules apply as on the gun ranges. The bows must be placed in their holders and no one will handle a bow while people are down range.

​

There is a fenced off area between the Archery Range and the trail leading to the Campground. This is a safety zone you should only enter or leave the Archery Range at the sheltered entrance at the rear of the front parking lot.
