Ladies, we have arrived! Our time is now!  The  Welcome Mat is out! The hunting industry flung open it's doors in welcome. We are no longer viewed as a bothersome pest, treated with the attitude of "Maybe if we ignore them they will go away."

Ladies, the Welcome Mat is out for us at last! We are no longer viewed by the hunting industry as a bothersome pest, treated with the attitude of "Maybe if we ignore them they will go away." No longer are we receiving condescending pats on the head with an obligatory "Nice job" comment. 

What we have known all along is now finally apparent to the rest of the world,  hunting is not a gender specific sport. It is for all who love and respect animals, nature and the outdoors. 

Thanks to a host of reasons which have matured coincidentally, we women hunters and outdoor gals are recognized by the entire Outdoor Industry as not only a strong portion of the buying market but very likely the future of all hunting. Through our own participation and our influence as mothers and teachers we have a direct impact on the views and beliefs of the upcoming generation. The staggering amount of single parent homes leaves many children without a mentor of nature.  Things like natural food chains, the REAL source of food, and our own natural hunting instincts are never introduced much less accepted. 

Female friendly equipment and attire is readily available for the woman who is timidly lacing her boots for the first time or the old veteran who has snubbed convention and followed her heart for many seasons.  Look around in trade magazines, consumer catalogs, and manufacturers web sites for products custom built with us in mind. We lady bowhunters even have our own web site at www.womenbowhunters.us. 

You are always welcome to email me for product recommendations or sources.  Enjoy the outdoors at every opportunity and always hunt safely and ethically.
