The 2013 membership drive starts at the January meeting. Membership Info
Public 3D Shoots: Approximately 9 public 3D shoots are held each year. Traveling from out-of-town? Make it a fun weekend and stay at the RiverBank Lodge in Petersburg, which has a "hunting lodge" decorating theme. Please note that you can find our annual shoot schedule online at http://www.bowsite.com and http://www.3dshoots.com.
3D Shoot Results: Menard Archers public shoot scoring results are posted when made available at the end of each shoot by the event's Team Captain, and we keep historical shoot results for later "bragging rights!

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.
