Bow rental/lessons with rental in western wa?
« on: March 31, 2016, 09:03:50 PM »
My girlfriends brother has expressed interest in archery hunting, and is currently going through hunters safety. 
I shoot just at home or at the local outdoor range, but was looking to see if there was anywhere that had bow rentals or lesson/intro's to archery that did not require you to bring your own bow.
I would help him learn on my set up...except he is like 6'3 and I am more in the 5'10 with my hiking boots on range,
My only thought so far has been going to one of the local archery shops as I am sure they would let him shoot different bows if he was serious about purchasing, but I just thought I would throw the question out here to you guys.
Thanks in advance.

Pretty sure Denton at Rock Creek Archery in Enumclaw does lessons and provides equipment. Reasonable rates too.

" In today's instant gratification society, more and more pressure revolves around success and the measurement of one's prowess as a hunter by inches on a score chart or field photos produced on social media. Don't fall into the trap. Hunting is-and always will be- about the hunt, the adventure, the views, and time spent with close friends and family. " Ryan Hatfield

Next Step Archery (if I remember right) offers introductory classes and will provide basic equipment. I took a class there with a buddy prior to purchasing a bow. They teach about form/mechanics and safety. It was very helpful IMO. They were located adjacent to the Nock Point in Lynwood/Montlake Terrace area.

Rock creek archery does have intro classes with equipment provided. You can find him on Facebook too.
