Where does a guy with a longbow go to practice in the West Des Moines area?  I don't know, maybe somebody out there does.

Archery Field & Sports in Altoona has a indoor shooting range. For me, I just walk out my backdoor or shoot in my basement. I live down near Albia out in the middle of nowhere.

Nice offer Cody, Maybe a road trip for me when warmer weather comes. I have a range set up in my yard as well. There's a indoor range down the road 15 miles but never used it. I've heard a lot about Bearfoot traditions over the years and would just be interesting to go and meet the owner..
