Steve,
You need a bear and a hog target,
Not much of a target range if you ask me.
And you need to rake some leaves around the turkey targets.
Pretty messy, I wouldn't shoot there.

I live in Blue Springs, MO. The no discharging of firearms in city limits includes bows and arrows. I can not stand in my driveway and shoot into my garage. If I shut the door and shoot inside that is OK. At least there are several ranges close by to shoot at.

This is my " range". I have a styrafoam target I shoot at, along with " the block". We dont have alot of land ( only an  heavily wooded acre), but its my little piece of heaven.

Picked up shot up midsections from the local archery shop averaging $10 each, 5 of these are those. Each one has a red, a white and a blue stake. A couple have the same stakes. I put them in difficult shot positions to simulate hunting situations. Would necessarily take these shots at real game.

I shot these photos with a fixed focal length, so the range to the target can be (sort of) inferred by comparison to another photo.  First shot is about seventeen yards.  The deer image is lifesize.  I have five main lanes cut, two level and three sloping downhill, with available distances running out to about 22 yards.  The occasional granite boulder adds to the "fun."      :banghead:

Yes, Virginia, we do have a few trees in NH.     :D    If I decide to get serious about hanging from a tree this fall, there's a great one to hang a saddle from above my range.  

While I was catching up on shooting lane maintenance, an immature Pileated Woodpecker that was bred and born on our lot kept me company.  He/she was about the size of a Robin (the adult is about the size of a largish crow.) I hadn't seen one that young before.
