I just inherited a 65# recurve from my grandfather.

He actually died in 1992, but my uncle's had it all this time, and it turns out his son (my cousin) is a lil light in the loafers and won't be taking up outdoorsmanship in this lifetime.

I wasn't sure if the thing was even useful anymore so I took it to Cabela's to have it checked out. Turns out the thing is some handmade custom job in nearly mint condition.

I wouldn't mind learning how to use it better than hitting a wall at 20 feet..

Does anyone know of an indoor range in or around Olympia? I drove by that Olympic Archery place on Blacklake but it was shuttered and closed.

Irie,
By far the best place around is KBH archery but it is a bit of a drive. It is on 50 acres and has indoor and out door range. They also have a 28 target set up through the woods. Very cool and worth the drive. It is in Belfare area so probably about 45min from you. Check out the website for the address(kbharchery.com I think). I believe it is only $5 for as much shooting as you can do. Again well worth the trip.

The shop in chehalis is lucky shot archery (360-740-7464) it is by far the best shop I have ever been to. Great guys to work with and super helpful, indoor range to 35 yards and outdoor range to 130 I believe.
