I'm here to do a little write up on strothers archery for everyone. Most people are not to sure what strothers archery even is, so I'm gonna try and fill everyone in on them a little. So yesterday me and a couple guys got invited to come out to strothers factory (Sandusky, Michigan) to check everything out and to see how they do everything and learn the history of the company. Well Strothers started 4 years ago so they are fairly new but climbing fast forsure! They are also more than just a bow company as well. They make machines that would make parts if that makes sense, so half of there factory is a CNC shop. The machines they make are really impressive and they are actually one of the two company's in the USA that have the capability to do what they do in the USA, which is make machines to make parts. So pretty much thats how it was explained to us they have that shop to help them stay in business just in case if things started going bad. We were ensured by them that they will not be going anywhere in the near future what so ever. So it's nice to know for people that shoot there bows or for anyone that might be interested in there bows some day. Now on to the archery side of things! We got to tour the factory and even build a few bows, which was awesome and a good experience. To be specific we built the Strother Rath. That bow it self is one of the most quietest bows out there naked, it's also fast and it felt great in the hand! We actually had one of are guys there get one while he was there. He got the Rath Xt in 80lbs, 29 inch draw, so he got to build it. For some reason they had a 750gr arrow there. So he decided he was going to shoot it through the chrono to see what he would get and he was shooting 250fps with a 750gr arrow which is pretty fast. Well after that he knocked a legit hunting arrow which came out to 402gr and he was getting 329.8 to 330 flat consistently and it never went under 329.8. For the kinetic energy he was at 98. So it packs a real hard punch. So overall it was a good bow it is a little bit on the aggressive side for draw but other than that I had no other complaints. We also got to go to lunch sit down with everyone and talk about different ideas and let me just say keep an eye out for the bow this coming November we gave them a great idea and it was an instant hit for them. It isn't anything any bow company has on there bows yet. Also we were there with the Easton rep and we gave him an idea for a new arrow so that will be a new thing to if they can make it happen. This is my first legit write up about a bow company from seeing it from the factory. Since we plan on going to a few more I want to do more to let you guys in on the factory side of things. So any ideas from you guys would be helpful as in what would you like to see on a bow, or what would you like me to review more on pretty much anything will be helpful. Sorry this one isn't the greatest but I'm doing this off my IPhone and my hands keep cramping. If you have any questions about there bows feel free to ask ill be more than happy to answer questions!
Do you own a strothers bow? Im thinking about venturing into them because Ive heard they have a great military discount.
