PCDHFC features an easily accessible archery course on the mountainside admired by beginners and experts that is open year round.
Members have access to the trails during regular club hours.
Non-members can only use the course if they are escorted, as a guest, by a club member. Guests are required to purchase a Day card.
There are also flat field areas for outdoor practice during summer months. Practice indoors is available in the clubhouse year round (see Thursday Night Drop in and JOP below).
Crossbows are allowed but must be rated less than 350 feet per second to prevent damage to the target butts.
Broadhead tipped arrows are strictly forbidden on all targets except for the Broadhead Sandpit.
3D Archery Fun Shoots are held multiple times through the year and are open to the public.
Archers of all levels and experience are welcome to participate. Please check the club calendar for dates. More information on the 3D shoots and trails can also be found at the Burke Mountain Facebook Page.
Conventional Archery at PCDHFC has an active Junior Olympian Program (JOP) for children ages 10-20. This program is extremely successful, and the club regularly sends young athletes to compete both provincially and nationally.
JOP Classes run from September to June, Monday and Wednesday nights, beginners class 6:00pm to 7:00pm and intermediate class 7:30pm to 8:30pm, we are currently at full capacity and taking names for the waiting list. The annual fee for JOP for 2022-2023 is $120.00 and membership in BC Archery is mandatory.
Contact burke.archery@gmail.com for more information or to have your child added to the waiting list. There is no guarantee there will be any spots available this indoor archery season. Thanks.
