ProLine is a commercial archery range and pro-shop, which has an open range on Wednesday evenings. We will be paying customers of Proline and must respect all rules of the range,including sharing the space with other patrons. Range fee: $13 per evening, payable directly to ProLine Archery. (This actually allows you to shoot until they close at 11 PM, if you have the stamina....)
If no one shows up by 7:30 p.m. the marshal reserves the right to pack his stuff and go home. If you are in route and expect to arrive later than 7:30 p.m., please call me on my cell phone at (914)261-6126, so I know to stay.
I will bring loaner equipment only on request. If you will need a loaner bow or arrows,please be sure to R.S.V.P. me directly at ch1235@hotmail.com at least 2 days before the practice for which you will need equipment. Proline archery also rents bows for $5 per evening and a quiver of arrows for $1.
