Team
Frady Archery
Adventures
Archery
is one of the oldest forms of hunting and recreational shooting
sports. Jim and I both have a passion for archery and bow hunting.
To be a successful bow hunter everything has to play out as
if scripted. You have to learn to be one with nature, to be
consumed with your surrounding, to be able to draw and release
your arrow with little motion and no sound. Bow hunting will
teach you all these things along with patience and persistence.
Team
Frady Archery Adventures was established in 1996. Jim and I
are both professionals in the shooting sports, hunting and outdoor
industry. Even with this to our credit we are both blue collar
workers and hold jobs outside the industry. Jim is a machinist
in a commercial diesel turbo charger plant, and I am self employeed.
Jim
began bowhunting at the age of 12. I was hunting on
my own at 18 and began bowhunting in 1993.
Shooting
3-D Archery Tournaments was a way to better hone our skills
of shot placement and judging yardage. We, along with our daughter
Leah (aka Bud) competed for many years in local, state and national
(ASA) tournaments and have 6 championships to our credit.
We
run Team Frady much like a Sprint Cup Racing Team. Sponsors
play a huge part in making our dreams become reality by helping
us achieve our goals.
Our
youth and women’s programs are our first priority. We are both
certified Level 1 Archery Instructors and North Carolina Hunter
Education Instructors. We teach archery and our “Outdoor Classroom”
programs for Schools, Camps, Boy Scouts of America, 4-H Clubs
as well as the National Wild Turkey Federation's Jakes Days
and camps for the terminally ill.
You only conserve what you love
You only love what you know
And you only know what you are taught

Our
women’s programs include instructing classes for the NWTF Women in the
Outdoors programs (WITO) and the N.C. Wildlife Resource Commissions
Becoming and Outdoors Woman program (BOW). Without our sponsors'
help we would not be able to continue the programs we have worked
so hard to build. We are very loyal to the companies we work
with and they in turn are very supportive in helping Team Frady
chase our dreams of promoting 3-D archery and bow hunting. Due
to our sponsors' support, the Team Frady hauler covered 7 states
last year promoting archery, bow hunting and wildlife conservation.
The
number of new and “old standby” products are overwhelming in
the hunting world. If you don’t think so, visit a Bass Pro Shop
and walk through the archery/bow hunting department. It’s confusing
to most consumers; all these products work well or they wouldn’t
be on the shelf.
With
this website our goal is to offer technical info, product reviews
and to give you information that will help you on your next
product purchase, hunting trip or archery event.
We will feature our hunts and the outfitters
we use on our hunting adventures in future articles.
We
hope you enjoy this site and that it answers some of your questions.
We also hope is gives you the information you need to choose
the right products for your next Archery Adventure.
