Archery
Hunting
Bow hunting or usually called
archery hunting is one of the regulated hunting methods in the United States.
Archery hunting also has its own special season to minimize its interference
with rifle hunters. The technical regulations of archery hunting are regulated
by individual states and provinces in an effort to maximize the recovery of
games and shot lethality. However, some countries in Europe consider archery
hunting as unnecessarily cruel to animals, thus, making it illegal.

But if you are thinking of taking
archery hunting next season, you need to prepare to be in a good condition.
Preparing for archery hunting is not just about the equipments and gears,
physical conditioning is also a factor. If you will go on bow hunting you must
consider that bow hunters typically hike and climb about five to fifteen miles
a day in a terrain that is more beautiful to look at rather that hiking on it. Most
archery hunters condition themselves with cross-country training fitness
programs. Most bow hunters undergo acclimatization training so that they will
be in good shape when they go out to bow hunt.
Aside
for physical training:
most bow hunters make sure that they have all
the proper supplies and equipments before going out to hunt. Here are some of
the basic and essential supplies and equipment that a bow hunter must have when
hunting.
· Headlamp
or Flashlight
· – one
of the essential equipment of the hunting gear because most hunting expeditions
usually lasts a few days. Nobody wants to grope in the dark, especially in the
wilderness.
· Sleeping
Bags
· – not only does a
sleeping bag keep you warm at night it also protects you from bugs and insect
while sleeping.
· Knife
· – self explanatory.
Even amateur hunters would acknowledge that the knife has many uses.
· First
Aid Kit
· –
don’t leave home without it. The basic first aid kit is sufficient enough.
· Nylon
Rope or Cord
· –
has many uses, especially when settling at night. You can also tie your game
with this so that you will have less difficulty in carrying your game.
· Boots
and Socks
· – don’t just settle
for any type of boots. Settle for the type of boots that structure of your feet
needs. If you wear mountaineering type of boots that are uncomfortable, you
take the risks of having foot injury.
Your boots should have enough support on your ankles and feet.

· Topography
Maps
· –
don’t be too sure of yourself even if you are familiar with the surroundings.
Even experience bow hunters get lost if they don’t bring topography maps with
them.
Keep this in mind, if you can
afford it, don’t sacrifice the quality of the equipment. If ever you can’t
decide on particular equipment, always settle for quality, not the price.
