San Diego Archers maintain two ranges. They are both in the
Balboa Park area in the city of San Diego. The fee is $2.00 per
archer that can be placed in a collection box at each range. The fee
is based on the honor system. The money collected goes to the
maintenance of the ranges. Without these fees, the ranges cannot
stay open so please be sure to pay the fees.

Morley
Field
This is a standard range with eight lanes. Range
markers go from 10 to 70 yards in increments of 10 yards and can be
shot from 100+ yards with proper range safety in mind. This range is
good for fine tuning your sights or practicing for tournaments.
Directions
Exit I-8 at Texas St. (Texas St. is about 2 miles east of the I-8
and 163 interchange.)
Follow Texas St. south, crossing
University Ave., continuing until you cross Upas St. into the park
towards the Morley Field municipal pool.
Make the required
u-turn and turn right into the parking lot.
Continue through the
parking lot and make the first right turn through the open gates.
This road continues into another parking lot and the archery
range is at the end of the lot on your left, across from the ball
fields.

Balboa
Park
This is a walking range through the canyon adjacent
to Highway 163. It consists of 40 targets that can be shot from
various ranges. The first 15 targets are closed most of the year, but
are opened during special tournaments, including the King Arthur
Tournament in June. There is also a small practice range at the
beginning of the course with target ranges from 10 to 40 yards. This is a great
range with a forest like quality.
