R100 National Archery Tour Dates for August 2023
The National Bowhunter Education Foundation (NBEF) is calling all archers to join the R100 National Archery Tour as it travels to Moberly, MO; Saginaw, MI; Pipestem, WV; and Calhoun, KY in August.
Celebrating 20 years, the R100 National Archery Tour focuses on family-friendly 3D archery events. With the assistance of local clubs and archery pro shops, the tour is hosted across the United States.
Partnership Promotes Education and Safety
NBEF has chosen to partner with R100 to highlight NBEF’s safety and success-oriented bowhunter education classes and actively support the archery industry.
NBEF Executive Director, Marilyn Bentz, said, “The R100 events are very approachable for youth and adults. We’ve found these events are a great way for NBEF to engage with archers and foster an interest in bowhunting. We’re excited to sponsor the Youth Zone complete with colorful and unique targets.”
Youth Zone and Specialty Shoots
The Youth Zone will include five distinct dinosaur targets and two NASP targets. Supervised youth and cub shooters can enjoy this zone for free.
All events follow the same format, featuring two 50-target ranges, the Safari Range and North American Range, and specialty shoots each day.
Collaboration with R100
R100 Co-owners Brittany and Brad Rinehart expressed enthusiasm for partnering with NBEF. Brittany explained, “We’re thrilled to be partnering with the National Bowhunter Education Foundation as a way to promote the sport of archery as well as ethical hunting practices.” Brad added, “We look forward to educating shooters all over the country as well as providing them with a fun, enjoyable archery event.”
Spectators are welcome to join the friendly competition at any of these R100 events.
