TRY IT OUT
If you've never used a bow before, our advice is simple: try it out.
Our Beginner Classes are an excellent way of establishing good habits from the get-go, and sampling all the different styles of shooting you may want to pursue.

After doing the beginner course, you'll know a lot more about what you need & want in a bow.

PRACTICE
Archery is just like anything else - it takes lots of practice. Check your municipalities' bylaws; can you shoot in your back yard? If not, find an archery club to register with and use their range to hone your skills.

FORM CHECK
Once you have a bit of practice under your belt, we recommend taking a private lesson with a professional archery instructor to make sure you're not establishing any habits that could hold you back in the long run.

A small reminder...
One of the best things about Archery, we've found, is the community.
Whether you've met some new acquaintances in a class or at the range, we encourage you to keep in touch with them. Sync up your practice times. Go to competitions together. Compare gear. Shoot together. Make memories.
That is, after all, what it's all about.
