    Ok I know I can't be the only female on this forum. Where are my fellow female hunters/archers at?

    It is awesome! Just hopefully I can find some more on here. Sometimes it's easier for females to connect with other females. With being new to the sport, personally I feel intimidated to ask guys for help.

    Dont be intimidated. There's some very knowledgeable and extremely helpful guys on here. Thats what its all about. Sure there's lots of smack talk, but its all in good fun. Seriously, dont be afraid to ask anything on here.
    And welcome to the addiction :)

    Oh I'm not afraid of the smack talk, I can dish it right back. It's just nice to bounce ideas off of other females.

    my wife loves to shoot, but she isn't sold on hunting just yet.

    i just got her a hoyt ignite and sold her parker buckshot, and she can't get enough of shooting.

    she said she's willing do some calling for me, and if all works as i plan, she'll have so much fun, that she'll want to hunt.

    Yup, that would be me! Lol I'm dating Trevor Olson, for like oh gosh 5.5 years now lol. I know most of the guys on the bh.com team and they're all great guys.

    Have you ever taken your girlfriend to a shop to shoot some bows? Trevor got me started a couple years ago. Started off shooting a Hoyt and had some problems with a release malfunction and then super bad target panic. I got out of it to focus on my nursing school stuff and now getting back into it with my Mathews!

    I fell in LOVE with turkey hunting! It's a totally different game then deer hunting, hopefully things work out and she enjoys it!

    Yey! Another female! I'm new to it also. Just got my bow set up on Tuesday! Hoping to get dialed in so I'm able to get a turkey on the ground next month!

    I've heard that's a blast! That's for sure the right direction. Good luck, hopefully you can get her into it! Maybe get her on this forum so she can look around and see what it's all about.

    Kristine is still around but been busy lately! Not sure if she will go with to the Wisconsin Deer & Turkey show because she has to work that day but she will be at the GTG! She might not be talking to you anymore because I know she has been wanting an Jewel for some time now. She is probably mad at you!
