ARCHERY 1.0 - BEGINNER (Oregon)
COMING 2024
2024 Dates TBA
Come and spend the weekend with us gals.
If you currently have a bow but you’re feeling like you have a long way to go, this camp is for you. Whether you just got a new to you bow and want to learn how to use it, or you've had a bow but haven’t spent much time with it, this full immersion weekend will teach you what you need to know from the ground up!
Archery 1.0 is a hands-on camp that helps you better understand how your bow works. We also cover the components to a bow, how to create your own shooting cycle, how to sight your bow in by yourself, and of course, help you become a confident and consistent shooter!
Good archers and bowhunters aren’t those who have been shooting a bow for a long time, it’s those who develop and practice with good habits and proper mechanics. Our mission is not only to help you understand your bow and learn to sight in yourself, but also help you own your shot process and gain confidence.
This will be a full immersion weekend for women in the outdoors and will cover many topics to help prepare you for the best hunting season of your life!
Come learn alongside a small group of like-minded women who share your passion for archery!
Lodging will be provided "elk camp" style. Enjoy the weekend with friends while we camp out in wall tents and shelters on the property together. (Bathroom facilities are on site but showers are not available).
Friday we kick things off by getting to know the other ladies around a campfire. We will also open the discussion to talk about many topics for beginner hunters to expand their knowledge and skills.
Saturday will be filled with group discussions, shooting clinics, and hands-on learning. Sunday will be more shooting, final discussions, and wrapping up!
Dinner Friday night, will be served potluck style with your favorite dishes. Bring a protein or a side dish to share, and be prepared to pass around the recipe with others. :) You're welcome to bring your own meals or coolers as well.
Breakfast, snacks, lunch, and dinner will be provided for you on Saturday. Sunday we will wake up and enjoy a hot breakfast (provided for you) before we begin our day on the range.
Saturday and Sunday will be filled with seminars, and hands-on classes to get you ready for your hunt!
Take a look at some of the topics we'll cover:
Archery instruction (what is your shot process)
Getting acquainted (learning your bow + components)
Going the distance (shooting beyond 20 yards + sighting in)
Mental and physical toughness (fitness + mindset)
