Hey Elkcrazy, sounds like you need to marry your bow, or maybe you already have, LOL !
For practice used to walk around my dad's hay fields and shoot at the bales of hay out in the fields. Was alot of fun, until he made us retie all the bales that we cut the strings on.
I go to the archery range once in a while, but for the most part, I can pull the old compound out and literally pound the bulls eye from 20-30 yrds. in the back yard. Gets kinda boring though, rather be shooting at a 3-d shoot or hunting something.
