Where to find hunting mentors/etc in western wa (archery)

paninilord:
I’m a new archer who’s not really sure how to start hunting in western wa. Are there any clubs or organizations over here who help people get into hunting, or can lend gear for a cheap price? I’m also a woman so I’m cautious about finding people online because I don’t want to run into predators (not the animal kind).

Longfield1:
Have you taken Hunter safety? If you haven’t that’s a great first step to get some basic knowledge. Then follow on which is specifically for bow hunting would be bow hunting education that some states require. I took it even though in this state it’s not required.
As for clubs there’s archery clubs all around that you could join.

Might help to disclose a general location. If you are in the south sound there are plenty of shops, sportsman’s clubs and archery shops. The same goes for the north sound. If you’re in the Puyallup area you have GNW archery to help you get setup and Skookum archery club is there as well. Great place to get help, ask questions and make connections.

This is the same information I was going to post. Since Western WA covers a lot of ground a general location would help. The Tacoma Sportsman's Club has an active archery committee that welcomes ladies.

 :yeah: Western WA is tall and narrow. Giving info for an archery club or mentor in Bellingham doesnt do much good if you live in Olympia.
