Davenport Valley Archers (DVA) has been an organized archery club since 1967, and is incorporated in the State of Iowa. We support and encourage all types of archery. We are affiliated with the Iowa State Archery Association (ISAA) and the National Field Archery Association (NFAA).
The club hosts a number of bowhunter, field, and target archery tournaments each year. Our indoor range is located in Devil's Glen Park, Bettendorf, Iowa. This range is open on a weekly schedule from the first of September until the end of May. Activities include indoor tournaments and leagues that include a kids league, open shooting on Tuesday and Thursday evenings, and archery classes on request for groups or organizations such as Scout troops. Our outdoor range is located 4/10th of a mile west of Long Grove, Iowa. It has a 35-target 3-D range, a 14-target field range, practice ranges, and primitive camping. Bowhunter shoots are held monthly April through September, with the last being a broadhead shoot. Field tournaments are held in conjunction with the bowhunters shoots from June through August. The August shoot is a two-day shoot with novelty events and a hog roast. Members are encouraged to camp and make a weekend of these shoots. DVA is also one of four sponsors of the Eastern Iowa Traveling Shoot, which will be held this year at the Davenport Valley Archers' outdoor range in Long Grove, IA.
We welcome non-members to come and participate in all of our shoots and open shooting sessions, or just come to the ranges and learn more about our club.
