The 3D course will have at least 25 targets with potential for more and the shots will push the skills of any archery hunter. The warm up shot area will have fun shots to enter to win additional prizes, including your choice of Bear Archery bow. Other shots will offer chances to get more prizes like a Garmin watch, fishing equipment, Morrell targets, gift cards and more.
