With turkey season over and not much hunting going on a lot of bowhunters/ shooters turn their summertime efforts to honing their archery skills in the way of 3-D archery.   3-D archery is essentially walking through the target course, standing at a pre-determined spot or "stake" acquiring the target or in this case the lifelike 3-dimensional animal, picking your spot, and in some classes judging the distance (more on that in the podcast) and making the shot.  Trust me. It's fun and the whole family can do it. Almost like golf but with archery tackle.   When talking 3-D archery or just archery in general, these two guys do it well, and have been doing so for a long time.    We go back in time to the beginning, back when things were just simpler and now have become nostalgic. We cover how they got started, what keeps them going, the mindset they use entering a tournament etc.   Ohh!  Let me not forget to mention we spend a great deal of time talking about how Darrin has switched from a lifetime of shooting right-handed to a lefty!  Yep! He was forced with a decision to make regarding his archery career. This is a great episode from beginning to end.  You won’t want to miss the details!   As always, let me know your thoughts, rating and feedbacks are always welcome!  I hope you enjoy it!

Ep.36- (Lefty)- Tony Tazza and Darrin Christenberry

In this episode of the podcast I sat down with one of my good friends and long time Professional Archer, Tony Tazza. When I say long time, Tony starting shooting Professionally back in the late 90's. So yeah- He's been around. The word "professional" get's used often to describe someone who makes their living mostly when involved in a sport. (Someone is a "pro" baseball player, or a "pro" golfer. etc) They get paid to play a "sport'  Another way to use the word "professional"  is as a descriptor to someone's character.  And honestly, the two ways of description should coincide when you're paid to participate in a sport in the publics eye, but oftentimes that isn't the case.  EXCEPT when we are talking about Tony Tazza. Tony not only get's paid to shoot a Bow and Arrow, he's also one of the nicest, most modest, approachable guys you could talk to on and off the archery course. I actually heard one of Tony's competitors say one time that "he's the nicest guy in archery" Not only is has Tony been a "pro" archer he also owns his own Archery Pro Shop "The Archery Zone" in Johnstown, PA.  Before that, a very well respected sales representative for Hoyt bow company, selling bows to Bowhunters, and Target archers in archery shops throughout PA, WVA, and MD.  With over 15 National Titles, Tony's modest character and pedigree has allowed him to pursue one of his life's passion for over 25 years.  Other topics discussed The Good Ole" days How the Archery Hunting scene has changed in PAThe fact that Tony couldn't remember how many national Titles he's wonThe future of archery    And much, much more.. As always, I hope you enjoy the show!
