## Resource

In this episode, I sit down with my buddy John Chandler to talk all things archery and the journey that shaped his passion for the sport. John shares stories from growing up with a bow in hand, how he got started in archery, and the lessons he learned along the way. We dive into the unforgettable moment he harvested his first deer with a bow—what it felt like, what went right (and wrong), and why that experience stuck with him. We also get into the nuts and bolts of what goes on inside an archery shop—from tuning bows and helping beginners get started to the behind-the-scenes work that keeps everything running smoothly. Whether you’re a seasoned bowhunter or just curious about the world of archery, this episode offers a mix of personal stories, practical insight, and a genuine look at the sport through John’s eyes.
