Range Rules
Every participant must read and adhere to the following rules at all times.
Safety Comes First
- Obey all commands and instructions from Alpha Bear Club staff at all times. Range staff have final authority.
- Always keep equipment pointed downrange. Abandon the shot immediately if anything is unsafe.
- Only nock, draw, or release when actively shooting your lane and the range is hot.
- Never dry-fire bows or equipment. If gear looks or sounds damaged, stop and inform staff immediately.
- Stay behind the shooting line until directed by a staff member.
- Eye and face protection is strongly recommended. Secure loose clothing and long hair before shooting.
- Wait for the range to be declared safe before retrieving arrows or targets.
Shooting Conduct
- One shooter per lane at a time unless a staff member approves otherwise.
- Know the range status signals: when the range is hot, live; when cold, no shooting.
- Shoot only at your assigned target and from your assigned position.
- Use only equipment and arrows provided or approved by the club. Outside arrows require staff approval.
- Report lost or broken equipment immediately. Damage caused by misuse is the responsibility of the participant.
- Do not touch anyone else's equipment without permission.
