The Johnson County Archers (JCA) are honored to be the first featured IBA 100% club; especially now as we celebrate 15 years operating at the University of Iowa’s McBride Nature Recreation Area between North Liberty and Solon on Mehaffey Bridge Road. While we can’t take credit for constructing this wonderful facility, that was the Whitetail Bowmen, we did resurrect it from the weeds. We added the storage shed, modern backstops, and expanded the trails to accommodate 20 targets on each of two courses. All archery related facilities are maintained by the JCA for public use, as our budget allows we install targets on the practice range, and keep a “jug” course up on one side. We host four public 3D shoots each year in April, June, August, and September. The remaining shoots this year are August 13 th & 14 th and September 25 th . Given the length of time we’ve been here, our courses and facilities were built where we could get them so we now focus our efforts on making the shoots fun and interesting. We have built several novelty games such as the ping pong ball blower, the spinner, the walking tom, the weaving zombie, ironbuck, and a game called balloon drop. Which one we bring out depends on the weather, the wind, who’s setting it up, and what kind of mood they’re in. Each time is a surprise even to us. We are also now building custom 3D targets. These creations are built from the remains of worn out targets, and pieced together like Frankenstein’s monster. They are unique and add an element of surprise to the course. You never know what’s around the next corner. It is also not uncommon for us to include group or herd shots, as well as scenes. A grizzly taking down a deer, a coyote stalking a carp, or an alligator lunging at an antelope. We know that not everyone can join our club but we sincerely hope that you will consider visiting us at one of our 3D shoots in the near future. Operating as we do on public property our main function is to provide a place for people to enjoy archery and experience 3D archery at the best possible level we can. We can only continue to do that if you come to our shoots and bring your friends with you. From all of the Johnson County Archers, Straight shooting and here’s hoping we see you in August. www.JohnsonCountyArchers.com and on Facebook, search for Johnson County Archers
