More women are getting into archery and hunting thanks to one woman. Archery is an ideal sport for beginners of all ages — you don’t have to be particularly strong, athletic or fast to hit a target. It just takes a lot of focus. At least, that’s what Dana Keller teaches her students at A1 Archery in Hudson, Wis. Keller is a Level 3 USA archery coach and bow hunter.

As Minnesota’s deer archery hunting season continues, Keller joined Minnesota Now to share tips for new archers.

First frost coming this week for the Twin Cities? Highs in the 70s to start October will come to an abrupt end as the coldest air of the season moves in Thursday into Friday, possibly touching off the season’s first frost for Minneapolis and St. Paul.
