I live in Plano and recently bought a new bow. The problem is where i live i cant shoot it. Does anyone know where i can go to get some practice with it. I won't be able to hunt with it until i can be confident of hitting my target i dont like the thought of wounding a animal i cant find. HELP!

I live in Dallas and am in a similar situation to you. I've been practicing in the basement of my office parking garage. Nobody parks down there and it's about 100yards long, so plenty of room to shoot. The only bad thing is that your arrow is ruined if you miss the target.

this is where i shoot on the weekends when i wanna get out of the backyard. its kinda in the country, but just put 5 bucks in the red box and you can shoot for as long as you want. plus, they have some 3D targets, they are old yes, but they have them set up around the property there giving you a good variety of things to shoot at. i like the place, and the members are good people too. http://www.collincountybowhunters.org/
