Take aim at an AGFC archery range before heading to the field. Arkansas Game and Fish Commission (AGFC) maintains public archery ranges throughout the state, providing accessible shooting opportunities for hunters and recreational archers preparing for hunting season or improving their skills year-round.

AGFC archery ranges are designed as public shooting facilities managed by the Arkansas Game and Fish Commission. These ranges serve as excellent practice venues for hunters preparing for bow season and recreational archers looking to hone their accuracy and technique.

These facilities are specifically dedicated to archery practice, accommodating:

• •Compound bow shooting
• •Recurve bow shooting
• •Crossbow practice
• •Field archery scenarios
• •Hunter education and preparation

AGFC archery ranges typically feature multiple target stations with varying distances, allowing shooters to practice at realistic hunting ranges. The ranges are designed to be user-friendly and accessible to both experienced archers and beginners looking to develop their skills before hunting season begins.

These ranges serve an important role in hunter preparation and safety. Visiting a range before heading to the field helps ensure that:

• •Arrow flight and accuracy are verified
• •Hunters gain confidence with their equipment
• •Proper shooting form is maintained
• •Seasonal preparation is completed safely

Archers should contact the Arkansas Game and Fish Commission directly for specific information about range hours, seasonal availability, and any special regulations that may apply to their chosen facility.
