Again thanks everyone for the warm welcome. As always Tradgang members are some of the best.
I started Addictive Archery in 2014. I've always enjoyed making arrows and attending shoots around the PNW.
They say if you can make your passions your work, you will never "work a day in your life". I've been fortunate enough to find this to be true.
I work full time as a firefighter for the city of Portland Oregon. Making arrows and shooting has always been a way for me to relieve stress and get away from the daily grind.
Getting my kids shooting and watching them enjoy the flight of an arrow has only increased my passion for the sport.
In early 2015 I was able to buy the arrow making side of Archery Past from Dave Doran. I've always looked up to Dave and feel honored to use the same equipment and many of the techniques he showed me through out the years. Some of the shafts that were included in the purchase are premium ACME cedar shafts and Surewood doug fir. I'm fortunate to live about 30 minutes from Surewood Shafts which is great, Bob, Steve and Rourke are always a pleasure to work with and if I time my visit right they buy me lunch.
Here is some of my work.
