West Allis Bowmen Inc. (WAB), is a family orientated archery club located in Racine County on 60 acres of wooded land. Our facilities include a clubhouse, storage garage, campground with electric, and six outdoor ranges. The clubhouse includes a main room with a natural fireplace, bar, full kitchen, meeting room, and 12 position 20 yard range. Our outdoor ranges include a practice range (10-80 yard bales), a NFAA certified range, and a 3D/burlap hunter range.
Our club has 60-70 families with over 100 active archers. Member's archery skills range from beginning youth to professional archers. We are proud to be the home club for many individuals who hold WFAA State, NFAA Sectional, and NFAA National Championship Titles. We are also home to many NAA and NFAA certified instructors.
We are dedicated to the promotion of archery,
and give special attention to youth interested in our sport. WAB holds a
Youth
(JOAD) League each year. We also
support other youth organizations (4H) allowing them to utilize our range to
support their programs. Our members graciously give there time to support
these youth programs.
WAB had hosted the Midwest Archery Tournament (Sport Show) from 1942
until the Sport Show moved to the State Fair Grounds in 2000. Our Labor Day
Weekend 3D Safari shoot has been held annually since 1958. This is quite possibly the
first and oldest 3D tournament in the World. We also host numerous
tournaments,
leagues, a Hunters
Banquet, and a poker tournament.
Future plans call for the development of a 6 station broadhead range with
distances from 10 to 40 yards. We are also planning to develop another
archery course for both broadhead and 3D leagues.
Membership in the West Allis Bowmen is reasonably priced for all families and
offers the availability of the entire facility 24 hours per day, 365 days a
year. (Tournaments and Leagues excluded).
