The archery trail meets NFAA standards for a field archery ½ course, consisting of 14 targets in various terrain and various distances. A total of 20 concrete shooting benches are protected by overhang structures. The complex development includes a dedicated shotgun/trap area to eliminate the conflict that would often occur when shotgunners and long-rifles were firing from the same firing line. The shooting complex is ADA compliant and comprised of ten 100-yard shooting stations, two 50-yard shooting stations, two 300-yard shooting stations, two handgun bays with six shooting benches and room for standing shooting within the 25-yard handgun bays. Oahe Downstream Archery and Shooting Complex Please keep safety in mind and always look before you shoot. Remember: Bows must be cased while walking to and from the archery areas or trails. These are located in our state park and recreation areas and on some Game Production Areas – check out the list below. The department manages and maintains 20 shooting and archery public ranges. Additionally, and just like other state game and fish agencies across the country, we manage a shooting range grant program to assist with maintenance and development of private ranges in exchange for public access to those ranges. It is our job to provide shooting range opportunities on public lands. This is rooted in our mission to serve and connect people and families to the outdoors through effective management of our state’s natural resources. The South Dakota Game, Fish and Parks has a history of promoting safe, secure, and accessible shooting sports opportunities for residents and visitors. The financial sustainability and effectiveness of the model, is rooted in the recruitment, retention and reactivation of outdoor enthusiasts – including those who participate in shooting sports. The success of the model stems from a user-pay, user benefit system, supplied by fees from hunting and fishing licenses and an excise tax on equipment used to participate in hunting, fishing, boating and shooting. The North American Model of Wildlife Conservation has been, and continues to be, the envy of the world.
