Anyone planning on joining the leagues? I have not shot in a league since the early 90's at Starlight Archery on 8 & Grosebeck. Sounds like fun.

I owned a house in the subdivision behind Tycoons. I miss having a range that close, it filled that February and March timeframe waiting for better 3D weather. Are you the same Michihunter on AT, interested in the HCA speed force?

Any details on the type of league? Will it be spot shooting?

Thought that was you. I actually grew up in East Pointe (fancier then East Detroit). Haven't heard back from HCA yet.........

Are you going to shoot in the league?

The range is looking good folks! Keep in mind that you will be able to "bank" a score incase you are unable to make it every week!

This will also be a handicapped league.

Went this evening at 6:30 PM to check out the place and it was closed:bloos:. Guess I should have called in advance but it was a last minute thing and the wife gave me the go ahead before we went out for the night.

Hopefully they will be open next week.

We will re-open on the 2nd. We had a family Xmas to go to and there are still some lose ends we are tying up at the range over the next few days.

We would love to pack 'em in for the leagues starting Jan 8th(3d), Jan 10th(3d), and Jan 11th(spot).

I see Cam mentioned we have Diamond and soon to be getting Carbon Express and Gold Tip. We are also researching how to get the full line of Easton as well.

Hope to see y'all soon.....

It will be a 30 target, 30 shot per week 3D course indoors. My understanding is that the league will also be handicapped, so you do not have to be the master shooter to win.

Leagues are on Tuesday or Thursday at 7pm. Call the store and Jay will give you the details!

I finally made it to Capitol Archery last night and shot a round on the course. Very nice place and Jay was very friendly and helpful. I will definitely be coming back to shoot some more in the future and might join the league on Tuesday night. I would recommend stopping by Capitol Archery to check out the place and fling some arrows. It's nice to finally have somewhere close to my house where I can shoot and talk archery and hunting with others passionate about the sport.

I am unsure if I can make it Tuesday. I am getting my bow back on Saturday and will have to re-sight it in. Do they have more then just a 20 yard range? I would like to try and get it sighted in as soon as possible. Is Tuesday night for spots or 3D?

Do I still need to call and register? Is it open on Sunday? I am getting my bow back tomorrow (new strings and cables) and would like to site it in prior to shooting a league. Is the range only 20 yards or can it be sighted in for longer ranges?

Well I don't get my bow back until 2 o'clock, so they will probably be closed before I get back in the area (unless they are open past 5 pm).
