Title: Martin Archery CEO
Post by: Duckslayer89 on January 03, 2017, 07:45:38 PM: Sitting here next to him at a bar. Sounds like he's trying to turn the company around and making everything here in USA. Kind of funny I overheard him talking about taking it over and he's not a bow hunter

I hope they can stay a big name in the archery world.

Right now it's a toss up between the new Martin and PSE bows. I am hoping the new CEO will be at the NABA show this year. I would like to talk with him and find some comfort that things are changing from that first moronic disaster right after the purchase. Do like what they have done with the bows for 2017. If he is not at NABA I just might make an appointment and take the trip over for a chat. Would sure be nice to see a Washington archery company flourish once again.
