Menard Archers
|
About Our Club: The Menard Archers 3D Archery Club is located near the Central Illinois town of Petersburg. Our membership primarily is drawn from Menard and Sangamon Counties, but archers from all over the state of Illinois come to participate in our public shoots. Club Meetings: The club meets at the range on the evening of the first Wednesday each month at 7 pm. (Gilmore's Restaurant in Winter months or inclement weather) Membership Info 2009 Schedule: Remaining shoots for 2009:
2009 3D Shoot Results: Menard Archers public shoot scoring results for this year's first event are posted: Check out the 2/22/09, 3/22/09, 4/25/09, and 5/31/09 Top Scores! Crossbow Participants Welcome: Due to the increased popularity of crossbows for deer hunting, a crossbow competition category has been established for our club shoots. Crossbows are now legal in Illinois for deer hunting by hunters age 62 and older, in addition to previously eligible younger hunters who have received a disability permit from the IDNR. We hope that this encourages some grandparents to return to the sport of archery and take a grandchild to one of our 3D shoots! Note: Crossbow archers will shoot from the yellow (Special Equipment) stakes.
