There's a club in Putnam County that has a 3D archery course as well as a pistol & rifle & skeet range that you could join if your so inclined. If interested PM me.

I don't think that I practice at all but I do shoot a lot of arrows both in my back yard and out in the woods.
God bless,Mudd

Where ya live bud?? I am in Selkirk about 10 minutes from Albany!!I shoot in the yard but also in the house and basement. I can get 13 yards from one bedroom down the hall to next bedroom. I make sure pets are out and no one comes up the stairs. You only need a few yards to practice form and shoot into a bag target. Shawn

KS, that post is OK but not good to advertise the nature of the accident, maybe just the saftey aspect. Don't look good for any of us!

Have two ranges set-up on current residence.
Hope to be able to set-up a range in the woods again sometime in the not to distant future and to be able to convenienly stump shoot.
Practice also at a couple of local clubs.
Many times shoot two rounds of 3D's on weekends.
Have also shot blind bale in garage several times/wk.

I'm pretty fortunate when it comes to having a easy place to shoot my bows.
I walk out the back door. LOL! Built my house on 3 acres. Part of a 5 acre field..

i wouldn't worry too much about what other people think. if your legal, then don't let it bother you. you have just as much right to shoot your bow as they have to ride their bikes/horses. i live in buffalo newyork and it is illegal for me to shoot in my own yard because a bow is considered a firearm. i still shoot though because the back property line is bordered by a rail road. i say shoot away and worry only about the safety of others, not their opinions. don

I'm lucky enough to live in a town with a public archery range 3 minutes from the house. A few weeks ago they moved it a couple hundred yards down the road from the old site and made some improvements. We also have gun ranges on each end of town about 8 minutes in either direction. I love it here!

The Hudson Valley is beautiful.... NY State, down state is goofy. I feel for ya.
Be creative and keep looking. State forests and game lands should allow you the ability to stump. More formal, check out clubs and 3D stuff. 10 ft inside is good form practice...
Good luck...
PS: You could move...
