Do you want to learn to hunt with a bow? We can help. Join us for our third annual EatWild Bow hunting workshop. We're teaming up with the Feathered Fletch Archery School and other accomplished and passionate bow hunters to bring you a comprehensive bowhunting workshop.

We are hosting the event at the Fossen's Guest Lodge, where we will spend three days with you breaking down the fundamentals of archery, the principle of hunting with a bow, and planning and implementing a successful bow hunt. We are stoked to support you on your journey to becoming a successful bow hunter.
