Who works in the archery buisness and what do you do??

[mo_bowhunter]

Also is it true that if you work in the business that you actually have less time to get out and hunt?

[Archeryaddict]

yes on both accounts
Less time for 3D shoots too :(

[SPECTRE]

Yes.... and yes......


I help out a pro shop when I can doing the REALLY technical stuff. Most of the guys can change strings and so forth but when they run into a brick wall then they call in the big gun.... 8)


No way I would want to do that full time.

Archery is all about fun for me..... (Though I do actually take my shooting very serious :wink: ). I never want to make it a job (as in dread it).

[pinshooter]

Most of the people I know that work in a shop have little time to shoot or hunt. Thats not for me but I glad someone does it.

I work for BowTech and well, you've seen what I do... 8) :D

It's true that if you work in the industry, you get less time to participate in it. Don't get me wrong though, I love my work... :D

Bet they really twisted your arm to put those PBR passes in your hand 8)


For those that don't know...... it was the way that Bowtech_Shooter represented himself and BowTech that convinced me that I needed to be hooked to their wagon. This guy is first class. 8)

[Jim C]

while I am a civil litigator (that is a trial attorney for some of you) in non private practice by trade, my wife is a partner in a pro shop-range where I work on bows, tie strings and coach olympic style archery. additionally, I am the CEO of the Cincinnati Junior Olympians-the first JOAD club in the USA and I coach kids and adults at least 10 hours a week (I was in the original "Master" NFAA coach school 6 years ago and I also hold an NAA level II certificate). In addition I am the VP of the Ohio NAA affiliate-Fita Archers of Ohio. Prior to our shop opening I was a staff shooter for the late great RELO Sporting goods in Fairfield Ohio

[niteshade]

working for bowtech here. :D on staff with trophy ridge and tru-woods camo. it's not work though, its a pleasure :)

[Thehairlessone!]

I have a small shop in the basement that I run in the evenings,etc.

I dont work on bows or anything like that.

Mainly just sell selected specialty items such as double bull blinds, which is what I concentrate on. That keeps me pretty busy!

I am also the president of the local archery club. Add those with my full-time job and family and I am a pretty busy guy.
