Another exciting season of Women on Target(r) Hunting Excursions is about to begin. Women hunters with experience ranging from first-timer s to the most seasoned of veterans are provided with the opportunity to have a unique and enjoyable hunting adventure.

Since 1999, Women on Target(r) has brought together women who share a love of the outdoors. Huntresses will have the chance to hunt a wide variety of game through our diverse hunts. Elk, quail, boar, turkey, deer, dove, antelope, bear, goose, duck and pheasant hunts have brought hundreds of women to our excursions.

"Our professional staff, outfitters and guides are individually selected for their exceptional services and commitment to each individual's needs," NRA Deputy Executive Director Andrea Cerwinske said. "This year's docket truly offers something for everyone."

Women on Target(r) hunts are a welcoming environment where the skills necessary to be a successful hunter are taught. The professional out fitters are carefully screened to ensure a supportive, friendly, and pressure-free atmosphere throughout the trip. We want you to take t he skills you learn on your hunts and pass them on!
