I am a member of every local club I shoot at. Even if I am not able to participate, they can use my $$$ to help out the club. I am a life member of two statewide archery organizations.....one that is for all bowhunters and one that is traditional only.

Used to belong to a club but they voted not to let me (any wood arrow shooters) use the indoor range.  Said the glue-on tips may come off.

Then they said I (any member) couldn't practice on the outdoor 3-D targets.  What good are targets if you can't use them for practice?

Membership lapsed.  Bu-bye.

Here in Australia it's not mandatory but a good idea to belong to a club.  In West Australia, where I live, you can't shoot on public land, only on private or at a designated club.  You can shoot on your own property, but at least for me, it's not wise as I live in a townhouse.  I do occasionally take a few shots in the back yard, thankfully the neighbors haven't said anything, having 6' tall walls surrounding the yard helps!  Belonging the club gives me a legal as well as safe place to shoot and meeting other archers makes it worth the time and expense.

Stupkiller: Most clubs only use their 3d targets for competition shoots only, they are just to expensive to let members shoot them for free. Our club has bag targets for practice.

You can be a member of all 3 or just one, but your right, i should have set up the poll a little better.

This is interesting, because like some of you I am a member of a state club and 1 other club but its 1 hr away.

I have 2 local places to go and shoot, only 1 3d.

But at the end of the day, there are no local clubs that cater to the traditional archer, unless you count my backyard.

thanks for the responses guys

I liked our club, Michigan Longbow Association, so much that I became the President of it.  Very rewarding to help those that bring joy to me and my family, not to mention all the great people you will meet along the way.

I don't know of any local clubs that I can easily reach on a regular basis.  I  belong to Traditional Bowhunters of Georgia and Traditional Bowhunters of Florida. If there are any local trad clubs in Middle GA, please let me know.
