Where to practice Archery

Hi, I wanted to know if anyone knew where I could learn/practice archery in the LA area or how to go about finding info on it. Thanks.

In LA? Sorry, not familiar with the area, but you might want to try a local community college and take a course if they offer it. That's a good start. As for specifics, sorry, can't help.

Rod and gun clubs have archery facilities around here. Try contacting one in your area.

I just use my back yard

Cool, thanks, I will give it a "shot"! NO backyard though, I live in the city.

Are you in LA? Which facilities do you recommend? Thanks.

I'm in British Columbia...way up in Canada, so I can't help you find one in your area.
Look for a place that has a "3D shooting area"..it's lots of fun...are you going to be hunting or just target?

Thanks you guys, all the info is very useful.

I am interested just because I think it a cool "sport", skill set to have.

It's a lot of fun. I got my archery merit badge in Boy Scouts way back when. Tons of fun qualifying for it.

I'll throw my voice in for checking local gun clubs. I have to get back into archery, I tripled my high school's total number and percentage of total bullseye records in gym class a few years ago

Hey you guys, I just wanted to say thanks again! Especially the SoCal people for trying to help.

I actually live in LA (without a car! can you believe it?) so some of the suggestions were a 'bit' out of reach.

But, I found a beginners class at my school(college) so I signed up for this semester! *yay*

Thanks again everyone, I will report back in a few weeks and tell everyone how it's going.
