Club Background

Texins Archery Club (TAC) was originally created as an employee benefit for Texas Instruments and affiliates in the 1960's. In the late 90's, TI spun off its club organizations under the umbrela organization Texins Association as a 501-C non-profit club, but continued to provide the club property (8880 Restland Blvd. Dallas) owned by TI on a longterm lease. In April of 2010 TI reclaimed the land and the club relocated to a new home at the Elm Fork Shooting Park facility in northwest Dallas.  Texins is one of the largest archery clubs in Texas, with a roster of over 280 members and great archery facilities!
