Archery is a different way of hunting.  You use bows or crossbows, and arrows instead of bullets.  Even though firearms are not involved, archery can still be dangerous.  It is important to follow all of these safety rules:

  • Don't ever dry fire a bow.  Always use arrows when shooting a bow.
  • Don't ever be careless with arrows.  Treat bows and arrows like loaded firearms.
  • Don't ever shoot bent, cracked, or broken arrows.
  • Secure bow and arrows before crossing an obstacle.
