There's a club close to you that we shoot at all the time.

There are different classes, depending on your equipment. The hunter class is about 35 yard max, and the unlimited is 50 or so.
Just depends on the club. There's a shoot this weekend at Apache in Lockborne. It's a round robin shoot, but if you want to shoot, just tell them your a non member and want to shoot, and they well let you shoot. Can't remember what it costs, maybe 8 or 10 bucks for 30 targets. It's a great time, if we didn't have stuff going on this weekend, I'd meet you there and shoot.

Yea I have to work this weekend but maybe I'll try to find something next weekend just to see what it's like maybe even take the bow and just see what happens. I've never been afraid to make a a&& out of my self lol maybe we can make a trip when we both are free.

Best tip I can give you is to shoot the target you are at and not the ones you already have. You can beat yourself by rehashing the target you just shot and done poorly on.
