#1. The Travis Hilfer Memorial Archery Range
Located @ 1900 Mandan Avenue NE, River Dr NE, Mandan, ND 58554, USA
Just look at the image below and tell me that doesn't look like a lot of fun? Lots of targets to choose from, nice clearly marked firing line for safety purposes, and you can choose to shoot from an upper level so you can practice shooting on a downward angle for hunting purposes.
