Please make sure your submissions are accurate. The 28 mailings for the 2021 indoor tournament resulted in six being returned.
(2) informing clubs of the benefits of Wyoming State Archery Association club membership which includes having insurance coverage of your tournaments and co-hosting one the state championship shoots. Member clubs elect/appoint representatives to participate in the governance of the Wyoming State Archery Association. Make your voice heard.
(3) informing individuals of the benefits of being a member of the state association including participation in state championship shoots, Bowhunters Honor Roll award, Youth and Adult Archer’s of the Year awards, and, if your state membership is through the National Field Archery Association, a bowhunter’s insurance policy.

Yours In Archery, Bill Heineke
Wyoming State Archery Association Indoor Target Championships
(Must be member of Wyoming State Archery Association)
This is a virtual/mail-in tournament which may be shot at any range in Wyoming, Saturday March 6, 2021 and Sunday, March 7, 2021
Archers wanting to shoot the Wyoming State Target Championships may do so three different ways: (Both Scores may be shot the same day)
1. Download from Wyoming State Archery Association Website-Tournament Registration, WSAA Membership Application (if not a member) and score cards . Archers need two other persons to witness score. Mail to Wyoming State Archery Association, P.O. Box 3246, Gillette, Wyoming, 82717
2. In-mail a request for Tournament Registration, WSAA Membership Application (if not a member) and score cards to Bill Heineke.
Be sure to include number of shooters so enough forms are sent to your address. You will receive the number of forms and a return stamped envelope addressed to Wyoming State Archery Association
3 . State Tournament Registration packets are being sent to clubs with requests to help with this process. Ask your club or archery range proprietor if they have received tournament information and will provide you with copies. This last option is a bit of a hit a miss as state archery range and club information looks to be limited
