Get the Curriculum

The ATA developed Explore Bowhunting for state wildlife agencies and other groups to use. The trade organization, not only plans to give Explore Bowhunting to states, but also provide the resources required to implement it. Groups who adopt the curriculum can name it whatever they'd like. The ATA's hope is that it will have a broad reach by being implemented as after-school programs, in-school programs or part of recreational programs.
