9 Good Reasons to invest in archery equipment

Here are nine excellent reasons why you may want to look into purchasing archery equipment:

1. Added bonuses of investing in archery equipment:Every member of the family can shoot a bow. Archery equipment comes in all sizes, even women and youth sizes.
2. There are fewer government regulations for archery equipment when compared to firearms.
3. You do not need a background check to purchase archery equipment.
4. Unlike ammunition, you can fire an arrow countless times before you need to replace it.
5. Archery has very little noise associated with the shot making it ideal for hunting.
6. The cost of a bow and arrow can vary from relatively inexpensive to ridiculous depending upon your taste, but once you make the initial investment you will have minimal expenses down the road.
7. Safety is a major plus. Without an arrow loaded on the string and the string pulled back there is much less chance for injury. Most injuries are to your fingers from sharp broadheads. However, as with any sport, serious accidents can happen and you still need to respect this equipment.
8. Using archery equipment often extends your hunting season, which translates into more hunting opportunities.
9. Do you have concern over future supplies of ammunition? The government is not yet regulating the sale or manufacturing of arrows as strictly as it is ammo.

1. Easy maintenance—keeping your string waxed and in good shape plus making sure your arrows and tips are sharp is the bulk of the maintenance.
2. Easy to store—fewer things can rust on a bow and arrow compared to a firearm, so they can be stored in a variety of places.

Learning a few of the skills shown on Hunger Games such as how to use a bow and arrow can help you become more self-reliant and may even help you survive a few days in the wilderness. Give it a try, I bet you will like it.
