Just wanted to say thanks to everyone's advice. I will probably be going soon to the archery shop... if I can ever find the time. My husband and I are both beginners sort of. He has been hunting for a couple years, but has yet to bring one home. He's never been bow hunting, so we're both just starting with that. I just wander a few things... how far can a bow shoot? Where do I find out all this kinda stuff??? Is there a magazine that anyone would advise me read??? Anything will help! Where can I find the rules in my state for bow hunting?
