After all that has happened we're still here!
I know that it has been a while since I've written anything. That's just because we haven't been able to go to tournaments to either shoot or be vendors. I just wanted to let folks know that we're still here and that Fender Archery is still an ongoing concern, As always, feel free to contact us here.

New Style Armguard
It has been a while since we've come up with a new product here at Fender Archery. We thought of this for a completely different look.

Naturally we make them with extra long straps like our other Armguards. This...

But who...

Much of our leather work leaves little pieces of leather left over that we never could bring ourselves to get rid of. Well we finally figured it out! Annette is taking pieces that are too small for our other work and working them into leather based jewelry, with...
Aero-Flights, not just for distance shooting.
We just got some photos in from our friend Aaron from the San Francisco Archer’s Cabin Fever tournament. We were very happy to get these. We received some photos from Aaron a while ago where he was able to show us that the Aero-Flight vanes really do deliver better cast and lower drag with good arrow stabilization. That is what our own testing showed, but of course it is always good to get some positive feedback from independent sources isn’t it? What makes us so excited about the newest from Aaron is that they also show another...
