Facilities

The Westford Sportsmen’s Club currently has four archery facilities for members:

  1. Target range with dual hanging bag targets at 10, 20, 30, 40, 50 yards. These are open to all types of archery using field points, though we do restrict broadheads to specific block targets on the practice range. For broadheads the practice range offers a broadhead target shelter as well as moveable broadhead-capable block targets.
  2. Auxiliary youth/beginner 10 yard hay bale training range. This is ideal for junior events since it accepts blunter youth arrows that too often bounce off bag targets.
  3. Two-level (15′, 26′) archery tower, with 3-D targets ranging from close-in, to 50 yards out.
  4. “Hunting Style” 30 target 3D course, open from January – mid October. It provides challenging shots at a variety of game animals (including deer, bears, and big game/exotics like elk, blesbok, ibex and dahl sheep) in actual woodland settings, highlighting some of our hillier terrain and views.
