Indoor Facilities Throughout Michigan

[WhiteBuffalo]

Maybe we could get a sticky on this. I would be willing to come up with the list at some point.

I was hoping fellow archers could be a little more specific and we could come up with a list for Archers on this forum who would like to know different places they can shoot indoors throughout the winter. They could be open to the public or clubs in the area which welcome the public to shoot.

This will also help support the people who own or manage these facilities and perhaps help keep them around for our enjoyment.

Edmore MI/Goldstar (Public)- Darts/Techno (Shoot at projection screen)
Mecosta MI/Dick's Place (Public)- Paper Targets
Stanton MI/Twin Ponds (Public)- Indoor 3D , Darts/Techno
Milan MI/Adams Archery (Public)- Indoor 3D, Paper Targets
Stanwood MI/? (Public) - Indoor 3D (The name escapes me kitty corner from the Farm Supply Business)
Novi MI/ Gander Mountain (Public)- Paper Targets

These are a few I have shot at over the past couple of years. I am sure there are many more like this throughout the state which amny people are not aware of.

Thanks for your input!

double action-13 mile and dequindre

[jjc155]

4 seasons Archery ( I think that is it) Ann Arbor maple/Jackon road. 3d/target.

[uptracker]

MJC in Royal Oak has a few lanes. 17 yards max I believe though. It's been a while. He's got another shop on the east side now too.

[cad679]

For the Lansing area we started leagues on Tuesday and I would be willing to help someone arrange a make up day if they wanted to shoot.

Thorny Acres in Elsie. We have Spots on Tuesdays and Thursdays and Bowhunter on Mondays and Wednesdays. 517/651-5112 for Jerry and Ann could give you more information if your interested.

[sullyxlh]

Milan MI/Adams Archery (Public)- Indoor 3D, Paper Targets (not to high jack)but did want to mention they have an outdoor 30 3d that's open year round too

[jjc155]

They sure do Sully, and u can shoot it even when they are closed, just slip the $ through the slot in the door. Some buddies and I hold our "championship shoots" there.

What our shoots are: After working 24-36hours in 2-3days, we go directly from work (get off at 0600, usually have to wait for it to get light enough) to the range, usually on a very cold/snowy day and shoot a round of 30 on the outdoor course. Winner of course gets to make up all the lies he wants about how "well" he shot. :lol: Scores usually are not great, what with the heavy clothing, winter gloves and conditions but it is a blast.

Good times,

Ben

[WhiteBuffalo]

Thanks for the reply's! If you could just give the name of the business or club and the town in which it is located that would be great. A phone # would be a bonus. Thanks again. I think this could turn out to be a great list of places you can shoot indoors throughout the state.

Unfortunately, Norm has closed North Woods Archery.

It's a real shame too, he's such a nice guy.

This leaves us with no place local to shoot indoors this winter, and me with a spanking new Martin Pantera just begging to be shot.

Mark

[Anita Dwink]

Yes we are.

I believe the dates for the qualifier are the 28th and 29th of April. We (not me I was out of town) just installed a new shooting wall this week . Finally rid of the compressed Hay Bails. Our 1st outdoor club shoot is the 14th and 15th of April . Looking forward to the shoots .

I wrote to the gent and this is what I got back.. Sounds good to me !!!
Hello Mark,

Thanks for your interest in Capitol Archery. As of next week I take sole posession of the building located in Redford Twp. We plan to get this up and running as fast as possible without taking any shortcuts in a quality shooting atmosphere. My wife and I are taking this journey together based on a few reasons, one being my passion of archery, two there is not any place within an hour of here where you can open shoot, join leagues and have weekly trophy shoots without high membership costs. I have taken extra steps in ensuring there are not any hidden costs for membership, insurance etc.
We will be a licensed retailer and will stock very little upon opening but, will build (hopefully rapidly) as we go. Target sales and arrow sales will be my first things on the retail side of this business. We are hoping within the year to have a full pro shop as there is plenty of room in our new building.
I have also requested to work with the township of Redford to run a summer program for youth and beginner archers. Beginning in the fall with the new school year we will also offer ASAP (After School Archery Program) for grades 4-12.
Leagues will be offered 5 nights a week with a Trophy Fun Shoot every Sunday at 2:00 Our goal is to have our first Trophy Shoot no later than April 15th but, are shooting for April 1st. We will have league sign ups available at these shoots and leagues will start in May. These will be full 30 target 3D course with shots from 6 yards to 35 yards. First league sessions will be an 8 week league to get in time with other establishments, hunting seasons and holidays. Leagues will be 12 weeks afterwards.
The costs for league shooters will be $10 weekly with a beginning $5 administration fee for scorekeeping/standings and averages. Trophy shoots wil be $15 for adults and $12 for youth shooters. Trophies will be determined by number of shooters present and after leagues are in full swing which class you shoot in.
I hope I answered some of your questions please feel free to contact me with any others you may have. This is a passion before profit range and in hopes that everyone that attends will want to keep coming back.

Thanks for your input!


Escanaba has two areas. The Escanaba Civic center has open shooting on Tuesday evening. Also, the Great Lakes Sportsmans Club will allow you to shoot (once without being a member). They have shooting on Wednesday and Thursday evenings. They also have an outdoor range you can shoot in the summer.

Gwinn (between Escanaba and Marquette) has open shooting in the Gwinn Club house daily. Monday evenings are used by the Buckskin Bowman club during the 3D shoots....(open to anyone) and Thursday (I believe) is the target archers. But the rest of the time it's fopen for shooting.

From reading their website, the overall Grand Opening is Nov. 1-2, 2008. It looks like you can buy a membership for unlimitied shooting, or pay as you go.

They're planning on:
Automated Pistol Range-11 lanes
--------------------------------------------------------------------------
Indoor 3-D Archery Range
--------------------------------------------------------------------------
Air Rifle Range-12 lanes
--------------------------------------------------------------------------
4000 Square Foot Pro Shop
--------------------------------------------------------------------------
TRAINING: Pistol and Archery
CCW CLASSES
--------------------------------------------------------------------------
Members Lounge
--------------------------------------------------------------------------
Future Tactical Rifle Range
--------------------------------------------------------------------------

The 3D Archery Range is supposed to be open already.
*********************************************
Pop-up 3-D archery is a fast paced fun event designed to simulate hunting situations.
It is exciting to watch and even more exciting to shoot!
Be warned however, Pop-up 3-D is very addictive and you may well develop an adrenaline dependency
which can only be satisfied with more pop-up shooting.
The indoor 3-D range will be 50’x120’ with 22 foot ceilings to allow elevated shooting from platforms.
The range will consist of 11-automated targets that are controlled by a computer.
The range will look and feel like being outdoors, with dirt, trees, shrubs, rocks and realistic sounds.
***********************************************

The pistol range is scheduled to open this weekend Oct. 25. 2008
**********************************************
All calibers of pistols can be utilized on the range up to .44 Cal.
The pistol range will be 50’ X 75’.
The range will have 7-automated target lanes with a 20-foot of firing line
without shooting stations to allow for lateral movement during tactical pistol shooting.
A safety range officer will be present at all times when range is in operation
--------------------------------------------------------------------------
The pistol range can be controlled by the master control booth or by each shooting station.
The range will have the latest ventilation system with HEPA filters to protect the customers
and employees from lead dust.
Weekly cleaning and testing will be conducted for lead and other metal particles.
Several types of leagues will be formed, bulls-eye, practical, bowling pin and tactical
Local, state and national tournaments will be hosted at the range.

**********************************************
