Phoenix, AZ -(Ammoland.com)- With the recent release of “The Hunger Games: Mockingjay – Part 1,” interest in target archery has soared, especially among young people.
To assist newcomers with getting started, the Arizona Game and Fish Department has created a new web page, www.azgfd.gov/archery. Game and Fish has posted archery tips and facts on the new web page, covering such subjects as types of archery, basic techniques, types of bows, and where you can learn. New topics will be added each day over the next week.
“We have seen an incredible influx of youngsters looking into classes and researching archery,” said Tanja Washburn, archery education coordinator for Game and Fish. “We felt it was important to have a resource page where people can go to get the most requested information on how to begin.”
“Archery is a lifetime sport that can be enjoyed by both the young and the young at heart,” Washburn said. “We felt it was important to have a place where people can the find information to learn safe, responsible and appropriate use of archery equipment and its role in wildlife conservation.”
