Title: Bow rental/lessons with rental in western wa?
Post by: blackpowderhunter 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.

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.
