I'm gonna be doing some 3-D shooting again this year. SO if you know of any 3-D schedules anywhere please put them on here.
I'm wanting to shoot Morgantown, Atterbury anywhere close to Brown county.
But for others not "frum here" (as we say to tourust) ;D post any you may know of!
Thanks

Jim, don't know your location these days, but the club at Hope seems to still be in operation. Check "Hawpatch Hawcreek archery" on Google. If you've never been there, it's an interesting range. Very compact. Great job of using a small acreage yet providing a safe 3D shoot, largely done through the use of several elevated stands.
As far as I can tell, no club has taken over operations of the facility at Atterbury. It was still open to public use if you want to bring your own targets, last I heard.
The folks who were doing nearly all the work to set up and put on the shoots there have now joined up with the Morgantown club and are doing a very nice job there, along with some of the already existing crew there. I haven't made it over there yet this year, but they're still scheduling shoots so I assume all is continuing to go well there.
Most of my shooting time these days is spent a little farther west. The guys I usually team up with are pretty fond of shooting the Boar's Nest down by Spencer, and Nancy's over near Cloverdale. A few of us went to the Cloverdale CC range for a shoot last month, too.
I still like going to Bloomington. also. The club there is still doing well and shoots the 3rd Saturday of ea. mo., signup till 11 am.
South of your old stomping grounds a little, there's Sand Creek. Nice shoots there, but it's a little further than I tend to go these days.
And Dirk and Shannon are active in putting on shoots at the old location just south of Brownstown, under the name of BNAZ archery club. Got down that far once last year and enjoyed seeing them and Ariel and her hubby again. Good shoot in a pretty setting, and nice people.
'Bout all of them I know of now. Kinda out of the loop the last few years.

Oh, forgot to mention Wildberry's. It's somewhere in the hills in Shawnee Territory. Nearest trading post where the round-eyes will stay is in Bloomfield. I think. 8^)
It really is worth the effort to find it and shoot there, and I'm pretty sure it qualifies you for your Pathfinder Merit Badge for getting there and the Mountaineering Badge for completing the course.
I may be exaggerating a little.
It was a good shoot and the guy running it seemed like a friendly young fella. Probably will try it again this summer, but may wait for a day when the temp and humidity aren't racing each other to the hundred mark. No place for old men the day we were there, but that was no fault of the operator of the shoot. Younger and slimmer people may have found it lots easier even that day. They have a website also. (But no ski-lifts!)

I might have been out shooting by then; sometimes I sneek out the last half hour after someone else gets done and shoot a few targets.

Not a 3D shoot but my brother in law has shoots in his shop, Trophy Hunters Unlimited, in Sullivan. Usually take place on Friday nights. Not your traditional shoots either, so you never know what you will be shooting until you get there. You can check him out on Facebook at THU Bow Shop.
