ARCHERY FOR THE FAMILY
Cortland Field Archers is located on 80 scenic acres inside the Isaac Walton League conservation property in Cortland County. From competitive 3D archery events to quiet family practice days in the woods, our club gives families a unique way to enjoy the outdoors together during the warmer months of the year.
3D ARCHERY ORGANIZED EVENT DAYS
Throughout the summer season, we host weekly 3D archery league events on Wednesday evenings along with occasional Sunday shoots and tournaments. Our full 3D course includes 30 targets spread throughout several miles of wooded trails. Participants should come prepared for a long outdoor walk with proper footwear, weather appropriate clothing, and tick preventative measures recommended. Children ages 6 and older are welcome but must remain directly supervised by a parent or guardian at all times. League and event days are considered high activity shooting environments. Because of the safety considerations and walking distance involved, children under 6 are generally not recommended during organized events.
We have 10+ youth bows available to borrow during events on a first come, first serve basis, making it easy for families and beginners to give archery a try without needing equipment of their own.
Event Pricing:
• Club Members pay a small cash event fee
• Non-Members pay standard event pricing
• Children 14 and under shoot free during league events
Sunday event pricing and formats may vary depending on the shoot.
FAMILY MEMBERSHIPS & ANYTIME ACCESS
Outside of organized events, members can enjoy the property at their own pace during the open conservation season.
Family memberships are available for $80 per year through the Isaac Walton League conservation property application process. Once approved, members receive access to the grounds throughout the summer and warm weather months. This gives families the opportunity to:
• Practice archery during quieter times
• Explore the trails and conservation land
• Camp and fish on the property
• Spend time outdoors together without event crowds or schedules
Many families enjoy using the property casually for recreation, skill building, and outdoor time together outside of league nights. Please note the conservation property is primarily open during the warmer months, as portions of the property transition into hunting season use later in the year and are not accessible during winter months.
