Background #

Many archers develop a love for the sport from one of their parents, but in Tim’s case it was the opposite. After his youngest son devoured the book series The Ranger’s Apprentice by John Flanagan and decided that he wanted to learn to shoot a bow, Tim got him enrolled in an introduction to archery course at his local archery club. Soon after, Tim discovered that shooting a bow was pretty great and has been coaching and competing since then. He now has his Level 3 coaching certificate from USA Archery and is the head coach at Rapids Archery JOAD.

In April, 2015 Tim was selected as president of the Minnesota Archers Alliance (MAA). The MAA is one of two statewide archery organizations in Minnesota and holds the charters for USA Archery, the National Field Archery Association (NFAA), and Scholastic 3D Archery (S3DA). Under Tim’s leadership, the MAA developed an innovative state record tracking system as well as a new way to quantify archery performance as part of the MAA’s “Shooter of the Year” program.

Tim got his NFAA pro card in October, 2021.
