Default RE: Anyone Ever Started (Or Help Run) An Archery Club?

worked on an archery range as an officer of the club for about 15 years. LOTS of WORK involved. However if you have the time and enjoy working on all aspects of 3-D archery, then you should give it a try. Itis expensive to do though andexpect that noone is willing tohelp for very long, it is too time comsumingfor most people. I love shooting 3-D, but I spent too many countless hours working on targets, the range, practice range,supplies, opening for business and closing business every weekend,( wehosted tournaments every Sunday afternoon and Thursday evening), keeping up with paperwork, insurance, and listening to people complain about everything and noone willing to help fix what they were complaining about, that I stopped enjoying it as much and got out of that end of it. I still enjoy shooting, but I let someone else do all the work, and I don't complain about anything. Oh yeah, that club that I did everything for is no longer open. Seems they couldn't find anyone else that wanted to give up that much time.
If you have help, then I wish you all the luck in the world. You should enjoy it if you do.
