Confused about bow classes, divisions, and what actually belongs on your setup? You're not alone and that's exactly why we made this episode.

In this episode, we break down the bow classes for both USA Archery and NFAA, explaining:

• ✅ The differences between Recurve, Barebow, Compound, Bowhunter, and Freestyle

• ✅ What equipment is allowed vs. illegal in each class

• ✅ The new NFAA Modern Bowhunter

We also play a fun "Hit or Miss" rule-check game where we test common setups and tell you if they're legal in each association.

Whether you're a new archer, a competing athlete, a parent trying to register your kid correctly, or a coach building a program, this episode will save you from costly mistakes and give you confidence on the shooting line.
