The following schedule is from the 72nd Annual Conference of the Southeastern Association of Fish & Wildlife Agencies which was held October 21-24, 2018 in Mobile, Alabama.
ABSTRACT: The pathway of a novice archer to a self-sustaining bowhunter can take years, and everyone’s path seems to be different. But what we do know is that it cannot be accomplished alone. The archery and bowhunting industry plays a crucial role in this pathway, and why not start that connection in your own backyard.ATA wants to help connect you with local and regional industry partners that will lead to more participants. Industry partners have the knowledge, equipment, and passion to assist in areas that others may not, and can play a key role along a new participants pathway to becoming a hunter.During this presentation, we will discuss successful partnerships, best practices when approaching industry partners, tools available for everyone’s use, and how these partnerships can come together to reach our end goal, creating new participants in a sport we all love. Join us for an open and ongoing discussion to make archery and bowhunting accessible to everyone, in every community.
