It seems a lot of the ppl here are from the upper Midwest that have had archery in school. My high school had it as a unit in one of the Phy. Ed. classes. I was pretty close to my head football coach, and his wife was one of our P.E. teachers. The coach and I always talked hunting; so when the archery unit started, she asked me to help with the instruction.....lol It was great, met a lot of new girls.....including my first wife....haha I think it's a great thing to have in the schools, and we spent the first three days of the unit going over safety.
