Title: Archery Ranges near Dallas ,TX ??
Post by: Jwilliam on February 16, 2010, 10:25:00 PM
Considering a move to Dallas, TX. Was wondering if there are any archery ranges or shops that are Traditional friendly in the area? Headed down there in April on vacation and would like to check it out.


Thanks, Bill

JW I order all my stuff but I'm in Big D.  There's a couple of good shops. Seems like mostly wheel bow stuff but there's tradgangers around.  Best part is how close you are to great hunting in all directions from Dallas.

Bob Lee is about 2 hrs from us.

Irving Bowhunters has memberships for about $100.00 a year but it has a 3D range and target butts on a nature trail, a broadhead target area, Mostly wheel shooters but a a really good place

CowTown Bowman in Ft. Worth and Texas Longbow Assn also in Ft. Worth are both great ranges.

We are 30 west of Ft. Worth.

All Star Marine and Archery in Dallas has a 30 yard indoor range. All wheelie stuff there though. Outdoor Pro Shop in Garland (N.E. suburb) Has a indoor range and carries trad stuff. Outdoor ranges include Mesquite Archery, Texans Archery, Collin County, Denton county and Irving Bowhunters. All have a regular range and 3D courses.

Bill, as you can see, we got a decent number of places to shoot traditional in and around the Dallas/Fort Worth area. Shoot, with your interests of bowunting, fishing and football, you're half way to being a Texan already!

Irving Bowhunters would probably be closest but when I was a member, it leaned more towards compound shooters, I lived in Irving at the time and joined just to have a close place to shoot.
If I still lived there, I would join IBA and Denton county because it's trad only club and not a lot further.

Take a look at DentonCountyArchers.com. We are a trad. club with modern shooting members. Other clubs are compound clubs with trad shooting members.
