CBG is a non-profit, non-denominational, Bible-centered organization that is a chapter of CBA. We are a ministry of Eastridge Community Church in Covington, Solid Rock Baptist in Covington, and Crosspoint Christian Church in Conyers, Georgia. We believe Romans 10:9 sums it all up: "...if you confess with your mouth, "Jesus is Lord", and believe in your heart that God raised Him from the dead, you will be saved." (NIV) As members of CBG, we do the following:
1. We promote the Biblical truth that God is the Creator and Saviour of the world.
2. We foster an awareness of a man's personal accountability to God.
3. We challenge bowhunters to allow the Lordship of Christ to govern their individual lives.
4. We provide help and tools for sharing one's faith in Christ with others.
5. We share the common joy and experience of archery with other Christian bowhunters.
6. We foster faith, fun, and fellowship among the bowhunters from everywhere.

...More About CBG
We are an organized group of men, women, and children who have a common love for God and bowhunting. We are a non-profit group, and we use our proceeds from the shoots and donations to keep up the range, awards, office supplies, financial help to those in need, and to tithe to CBA. We have a board of 4 who does the decision making for the members. They meet once-a-month to discuss new business.
All members and visitors have the opportunity to meet once-a-month for a shoot at the Starrsville Plantation in Covington, Georgia. Our shoots run from 8am. until 2pm., and the public is invited to all shoots (membership is not required). The shoots are free Jr. Eagles, $6 for Eagle & Sr. Eagle, $10 for plaque classes, and $15 payback/money classes. You can shoot the range just for fun (no awards given) for $8. There will be a $25 family max excluding payback/money classes. We have 20 targets with different animals, and we have many different shooting classes.
These shoots are a contest of sorts to see who can shoot the best. We give out awards for each class won based on the number of participates, and in August we host a state championship for awards to members and visitors alike in each catagory. Open Advanced class doesn't receive awards but a payback of money based on the number of shooters. Among the members, we keep totals of the qualifing shoots and in January, we issue awards for the overall winners of each catagory at a banquet. We also offer drinks, lunch, hats, and t-shirts at a reasonable price.
Membership can be easily obtained for $30 a person or $35 a family per year. Renewal of membership is $15 a person or $20 a family per year. Lifetime membership is also available upon request.
