3D archery returns
Langley Rod and Gun club is hosting its second flatfield shoot on Sunday, Sept. 22.
Archers can test their skills against a variety of life-size (and larger) targets.
The popular sport allows archers to target replica animals ranging from the real to the whimsical, from bears and deer to dinosaurs, bugs and “jackelopes.”
