How do I get started in archery?
Your best bet may be to find an archery club in your area. Or you can try to find a dealer that deals mainly in archery supplies. They should be able to provide you with information on where to find places to practice, and possibly find a place that provides instruction. Be careful of the big sporting goods stores. The people that work there may not know enough to sell you the properly fitted equipment. There are many different bows and you need to get one that will fit you, draw length and draw weight are two things that are very important to know. If the bow is too hard for you to draw back it will take the fun out of shooting. This is a good upper body exercise. so don’t be surprised if after a year or so you will be wanting to get a little heavier bow, so don’t get too carried away and spend a whole lot of money right away.
