Blue Ridge Bowhunters Archery Club Leicester, North Carolina, USA |
Located just 20 minutes north of Asheville,
NC, the Blue Ridge
Bowhunters Archery Club is dedicated to promoting field archery,
3-D archery, and bow hunting.
We have one of the largest club memberships in the state of North Carolina,
and are proud to offer opportunities for archers of all ages, from the
novice to the professional, to practice, compete, and enjoy camaraderie
with other archery enthusiasts.
All of our activities are
family-friendly.
Safety and fair play are paramount.
We firmly believe that passing on these traditional skills to our children and grandchildren is the only way to ensure that our sport remains viable in the future.
While many of our members shoot the finest and
most advanced compound bows,
our club also
includes a large number of traditional archers. If you are interested in
any aspect of archery, you will find someone in our club who
speaks
your language.
Crossbows, however, are not allowed on the property
of Blue Ridge Bowhunters at any time!
We are a private club, and our ranges and property are for the use of member only. We ARE NOT a commercial archery facility, and we do not offer archery lessons or any other retail materials.
Non-members ARE encouraged and welcomed to attend our weekend shoot events (see the calendar for event dates). If you are interested in archery but do not know where or how to begin, we invite you to attend one of our weekend events. You'll find no shortage of expert advice and tips for beginners as well as advanced archers and bow hunters!
FOR PROSPECTIVE MEMBERS: A great way to get into archery, or to sharpen your skills, is to become a member of Blue Ridge Bowhunters. Membership allows you free access to the range all year. To become a member you must come out to the club property during a weekend shoot event or one of the Thursday evening gatherings* and one of the officers will show you around and discuss membership options. We do not accept new members without an in-person meeting, and membership dues cannot be paid online.
*Thursday evening "3D and Dinner" gatherings happen each week during Daylight Savings Time. The fun begins around 4 PM and continues until it's too dark to shoot. Hot dogs are on the grill once the bows are racked.

Thanks
to
everyone

helped
set
up,
manage,
and
clean
up
after
our
first
annual
"Bowhunter
Tune-Up"
event,
which
was
held
on
August
19.
Everyone
agreed
that
it was
a good
time.
Adding
this
event
to our
schedule
in
future
years
is
under
consideration.
Our weekly Thursday night "3D and Dinner" gatherings are going strong as usual. Fellowship, food, and fun in abundance. Use the Red Rock Road entrance and please consider bringing a covered dish to share. The fun starts around 4PM, but come when you can.
If you have a question about joining the club or about scores, first carefully read the information found here on the web site. If you still have questions, post them on our Facebook page.
