DON'T TAKE US41 either. . . I was in Schererville and Highland and 41 is a parking lot both ways north of US30. South of US 30 all the way to US 231 41 is slow but moving.

Dave(grave): I really, really want to get into Archery (it's in my blood. I'm English, French, Scots and Irish with some Jew thrown in there for good measure). If I get myself kitted out with a bow we'll find some land to practice on once one of us knows the ropes
Also, taken out of context (as I've purposefully done here) this quote makes you sound like a maniac.some Jew thrown in there for good measure
The grade school parking lot near my house seems to have plenty of room. I'm sure they wouldn't mind.

I am an admitted idiot when it comes to archery. Its literally been 40 years since I picked up a bow, but I played with my daughter's new equipment yesterday. However, my ignorance has been supplemented by a lot of research for beginners. One of my archery mentors currently holds 3 worlds records, he recommended brand/type of bow. Another of my mentors is my brother in law, who is too modest but is a target shooter. The final mentor is the father of a friend of my daughter who is an avid traditional archer, draws a 100# bow and is in his 70s! All use recurve bows and both consider compound bows to be 'cheater' bows. I've also spent a reasonable amount of time sitting and talking to the guys at the archery shop trying to learn. Clearly I am a newbie with little experience and a bit of knowledge.Dave(grave): I really, really want to get into Archery (it's in my blood.

Melensdad thanks for the review. My son over the summer got to shoot archery for cub scouts and he really like it. He is seven. What would you recumind for him.
As for WHERE to shoot, if you have a back yard you have a place to shoot. Seriously you do not need a lot of space to get started. A good starting distance is going to be about 30 to 40 feet away from the target.
Is there any spot in the entire town of Griffith that is not within 1000 feet of a building or road? Seriously that is idiotic.However, it shall not be unlawful to fire or shoot a bow and arrow, so long as the use thereof is restricted to areas at least 1,000 feet distance from any building whether occupied or unoccupied or within 1,000 feet distance of any public street, alley, or highway.

Still, I know of people who shoot bows in their back yards in more urban environs than the backward burg of Griffith, Indiana. Perhaps they are in violation of their city code? Perhaps they just fly under the radar and don't push their luck in other ways.
I realize an arrow will fly beyond the property line, but if you have a privacy fence, set up a modest backstop, and use an arrow stopping target then I can't see how the neighbors would have an issue with archery practice in the back yard . . . regardless of what the law in your town states.
OK, got word back from "the experts" that I rely on for help in all things archery. There are "TOY" bows and there are "REAL" bows. Assuming you want to get your son started in archery with a REAL bow . . .My son over the summer got to shoot archery for cub scouts and he really like it. He is seven.
