    Very cool. Forgive my ignorance, but were you in the industry in your previous job?

    I'm jealous. Plenty of motivation for sure. Bear is down in Evansville but it's still WAY too far away.

    Good luck in the bow building industry Pat. But I guess that limits your choice in bows.

    Congrats! Out of curiosity, aside from them needing to fill a position, what qualifications were they looking for?

    As much as I don't care for Mathews bows... if it put food on the table, I'd shoot 'em religiously... :D

    Congrats on what sounds like an Awesome Job!

    No qualifications for bow assembly. They will train the right individual for what I understand.
