The Code of Traditional Archery

“Thoughtful and intriguing even after shooting traditional bows for seventy years.”

E. Don Thomas, Author of Longbow Country

Grant Richardson is from Ontario, Canada. He was raised into traditional bowhunting and bushcraft from a young age, shooting with a small green glass longbow at the age of three and a hunting recurve by the age of 14. Born into a family with deep roots in both the bowhunting and fly-fishing community, he has bowhunted and fly fished across Canada and the U.S. Grant has developed a unique method of shooting, specifically for bowhunting and instinctive archery based on pressure testing for hunting situations, and runs a mentoring program for those new to traditional bowhunting. Creating a fusion between functional martial arts training and archery, the program is specifically geared towards people making the switch from a compound bow to traditional. He enjoys hunting and fly fishing with his children and working the families Weimaraner’s Ellie and Maggie on upland game.
