ANNOUNCEMENTS FROM THE PRESIDENT:
HI BFAC members,
The next shoot we're hosting at the club is an ASA State Qualifier on Saturday, March 2, and Sunday, March 3, with a shotgun start at 10 AM. Please note the later start time than our club shoots, due to the increased time required for setup and registration.
We will also need a few volunteers to set up and range the course, and to help with registration and concessions. If you are willing to donate some time either day, we will waive the club shoot fee (we don't set the ASA fee). Please let me know if you're interested in helping out.
You can shoot the ASA qualifier on either day, or shoot a fun club shoot either day. If you wish to shoot the course both days, you can ONLY shoot for an ASA score on Saturday. Please see the ASA Federation website at http://www.texasasafederation.com/TexasFed.html for classes and rules; there have been several changes for 2013 from last year.
Thanks,
Mark Rosin
BFAC Membership Director
P.S. Please note that the course will be closed (gate locked) the evening of March 1 and 2 in preparation for the shoot.

LOCATION:
BFAC is located in west Houston on the south side of Clay Road about 1 mile west of the Sam Houston Tollway (Beltway 8). If you are traveling west from the Beltway, the range is before you get to Eldridge road. On the south side of Clay road at approximately the third u-turn/turn-around area across the median, you will see a small green sign that says "Cullen Park Archery Range." The sign is next to a gravel road that is blocked by a metal gate. The gravel road leads to the range.
The metal gate is open during tournaments and work parties, otherwise the gate code is distributed to members only. The range is about 30 minutes from George Bush Intercontinental Airport and about 45 minutes from Hobby Airport.
See the About BFAC page for a link to maps and more directions to the range.
OUR HISTORY:
Buffalo Field Archery Club (BFAC) was founded in 1948. Since its inception BFAC has carried on a mission of promoting the enjoyment of archery and a tradition of outdoor sportsmanship. Club membership includes individuals of all ages, shooting styles and skill levels.
VISITORS:
If you are not a member of Buffalo and would like to visit the range, you are welcome any time the gate is open. We leave the gate open during work parties and during tournaments.
