Bear Creek Archery in Englewood, Colorado is an excellent indoor range so you can shoot year round. You can rent bows, and even demo the best brand new compound bows available.
How expensive is archery as a hobby?
Archery’s cost varies with equipment and practice frequency. Beginner recurve sets start around $150–$300 plus arrows and protective gear, while range or club fees can be $10–$20 per visit or $50–$200 yearly. Higher-end compound bows or accessories can exceed $1,000. You can save money by renting or buying last years gear, but serious competitors often invest in coaching and travel. Overall, archery can be budget-friendly or expensive, depending on your goals and commitment.
Is Archery good for Hunting?
Yes! Archery hunting has several environmental and practical benefits. It plays an important role in wildlife management, helping maintain healthy animal populations and preventing overpopulation that can harm habitats. Bows are quiet, reducing disturbance to wildlife and other hunters while encouraging a deeper connection with nature.
Archery hunting is also more accessible in certain areas, as bows can be used in places where firearms aren’t allowed. Archery Season is longer, which provides more opportunities to hunt responsibly, and it’s safer for small properties, making it a great choice for controlled hunting areas.
Beyond conservation, archery offers year-round outdoor recreation for families and individuals, provides opportunities to learn about history, cultural traditions, and hunting heritage. And fosters a deep appreciation for nature through skill, patience, and observation.
When is Archery Season in Colorado?
Archery hunting seasons in Colorado vary by species and can change annually, so always check the Colorado Parks and Wildlife (CPW) regulations for exact, up-to-date dates. Generally, deer and elk archery season runs from late August through late September, though specific start/end dates shift slightly each year. For pronghorn, the archery season often begins around mid-August and runs through late August. Other species (like bear or turkey) have separate, shorter archery windows. To be certain of the current year’s dates and any special conditions (unit restrictions, draw requirements, overlapping muzzleloader seasons, etc.), Check our page for when does archery season start in Colorado.
What are the Regulations for Archery Hunting in Colorado?
There are many regulations for archery hunting in Colorado and it is your job to know them. Our CPW 2025 Big Game Brochure has everything you need to know about season dates, licensing, and legal equipment for a successful hunt. The 80% let off rule was removed in 2022, and generally you can carry a sidearm for protection while hunting – but all other laws apply. We have some tricky areas, such as city and county laws that apply to National Forest. Stay informed and ensure you’re hunting within the latest guidelines by checking out the full brochure! Pro tip: Save it to your phone as a download, so you can pull it up in the field with no reception.
Is bow tuning, arrow tuning, and broadhead tuning important?
Bow Tuning
What It Is: Adjusting your bow’s components—like the draw weight, cam timing (for compounds), limb alignment, rest position, and nock point—so arrows fly consistently and accurately.
Why It’s Important: A properly tuned bow reduces erratic arrow flight, improves accuracy, and maximizes speed and kinetic energy.
How We Help: We’ll inspect each aspect of your bow, run diagnostic tests (e.g., paper tuning, walk-back tuning), and make precise adjustments for peak performance.
Arrow Tuning
What It Is: Matching the arrow’s spine, length, point weight, and fletching configuration to your bow setup.
Why It’s Important: Even if your bow is tuned, mismatched or improperly spined arrows can cause inconsistent flight, wobbling, or poor grouping.
How We Help: Our team can recommend the correct arrow shaft spine, cut them to your ideal length, install inserts or nocks, and ensure the fletching suits your shooting style (e.g., hunting vs. target). We’ll confirm everything through test shooting so you get tight, predictable groups.
Broadhead Tuning
What It Is: Ensuring your broadheads (fixed or mechanical) shoot to the same point of impact as your field points.
Why It’s Important: Broadheads can create more drag or planing than field points, so special tuning is crucial for ethical, precise shots on game.
How We Help: We’ll check your bow’s tune under hunting conditions, recommend the right broadhead type, and adjust arrow flight so your broadheads and field points group together. We can also perform spin tests to confirm broadhead alignment and stability.
Bottom Line
Our archery pro shop is dedicated to making sure every shot you take is accurate and confident. We’ll handle all the technical details—bow press adjustments, rest alignment, arrow selection, and broadhead flight checks—so you can focus on practicing and enjoying the sport. Just stop by or schedule an appointment, and we’ll get you set up with a perfectly tuned archery system.
