Bows we carry: } ARCHERY LEAD MATT FEATHERLY I grew up in the Okanogan valley and I have lived here my whole life. I started hunting when I could hold up a gun and aim. Starting with a rifle during our general seasons proved to be successful, but I always wanted to be a bow hunter. That’s all I could think about when I was younger, having my very own bow to hunt with. Now that I started working for North 40 Outfitters as the Archery Lead I’m more passionate now then ever before! I’ve been a bow hunter for almost 7 years now and I hunt everything from big muley bucks in the high country to carp in the slews. My hunting technique varies on what I am pursuing, for those monster whitetail I use a groundblind to draw them in close, and for those massive muleys I spot and stalk. The Okanogan area has some awesome archery seasons especially the late season in November when the big boys come out and play. I love the sport of archery and I always will, from the ins and outs of target shooting, bow tuning and my favorite, harvesting big game I am always here, ready and willing to help! 17 I shoot a BowTech Insanity CPX, its my all around bow; I shoot 3D target shoots with it, and it’s the one hunting partner always ready to go. My Insanity is equipped with top quality accessories including a 5 pin Black Gold Ascent, QAD HDX ultra arrow rest, Tightspot 5 arrow quiver, 8” Bee-stinger Pro Hunter stabilizer, and some Limbsaver dampeners to kill the vibration. The arrows I shoot are currently the Carbon Express Maxima REDS, they shoot really well out of my bow with good groups and, to tip those bad boys off, I shoot the Rage Hypodermics 100gr broadheads, blood trails are a thing of the past.
