Check out who they are and the pictures attached, courtesy Marcel Laurens and Competition Archery, and many others. We are very pleased with the CD Archery shooters that have qualified, starting with our own Dewayne Martin and also Daniel Colloms in the Men's Barebow class and also Laura Hughes and Sydney Phipps with Cindy Pires Alt in the Women's Barebow class. How's that for CD Archery coverage of the Barebow classes??? Good luck and shoot straight people!
2022 promises to be another exciting year for serious archery competition from far and wide! And if you're planning on competing at the 2022 Lancaster Archery Classic, January 27-30, 2022, you are in good company from skilled archers all over the world! In the light of our growing archery community, we, at CD ARCHERY, would like to reward our top place shooters with some additional incentive!
So for the 2022 Lancaster Indoor Classic, we are once again awarding ANY CD ARCHERY Shooter CASH Awards to the Men's and Women's Barebow: 1st Place: $500.00 2nd Place: 300.00 and 3rd Place: $200.00. So let's see what our CD WFX Shooters can do! There's plenty of time to prepare, but you better start soon - competition is tough!! Be there just like our own Joakim Hassila from Sweden was in 2020 winning 3rd!
CONGRATULATIONS to all the shooters at the 137th USA Target Nationals and U.S. Open held on August 19-21, 2021, in Richmond, VA.
CD Archery was well represented as our risers were everywhere!
Results are in and here they are!
Congratulations first to Rick Stonebraker for going home with FOUR, that's FOUR medals! Three GOLD and one BRONZE in the team competition. He was First in the Barebow Master Men's division in the USA Target Competition with Spanky Brooks taking Second both with their CD WF risers, and with Scott Bills taking Third. In that competition, also Congratulations to Robert Hickerson for taking Third. In the U.S. Open competition, CD WF risers swept the podium! Yes, Rick Stonebraker with another First, Spanky Brooks with another Second and Tom Johnson taking Third! We had 4 very happy shooters taking the podium with others very close behind. We also see that Daniel Colloms finished 5th with pending Junior Male National records! Way to go Daniel! If you shoot competition but have never considered field target, you might need to reconsider! We have so much fun as your competition is shooting right nearby or right on your target. There is little guessing where you stand. And where you stand might be right in the mud, but so is your competition.
2021 National IBO Championship Triple Crown starts this weekend in Pipestem WV!

RESULTS ARE IN! The World 3D Championships for 2019 in Lac La Biche, Canada, are in the books! Some amazing shots made and some missed opportunities, but overall, quite impressive! In France, in 2017, CD Archery had 3 risers in the over 20 person team. The highest individual placement was our own Dewayne Martin with his 7th place finish. This year we had at least 7 participants with WF risers finishing very impressively! Dewayne Martin won Bronze individual with our brand new WF29XO! He did not go home with it either! It is now in Sweden in very capable hands! Our men's team with the same members as in 2017 finished in the 4th position. Overall our USA shooters all qualified in very good standing with all but one making the first day cut and 7 making the second day cut. We had 4, 4th place finishers with the Women's USA team winning a Bronze medal! Gotta say that was the most exciting match to watch! Those women really shot well! The CD shooters in the above pictures include Dewayne Martin, Cindy Pires, John Winker, Heather Leduc and Tyler Moore both from Canada. We also show German Cane trying out a WF27XO. Be sure to look for our risers where ever you go! We just passed out 5 more in Canada!

(From their website:)
Over the past six years, since 1,811 archers registered in 2013, The Vegas Shoot has doubled in size with more than 3,600 already registered. Organizers are expecting to reach over 3,700.
“It’s another milestone broken in 2019 in terms of participation, of prize money and of building on this already world-leading tournament,” said NFAA Foundations President Bruce Cull.
“If we continue at this pace, it won’t be long before we have 4,000 shooters on the line at one event. Wouldn’t that be something?”
The Vegas Shoot is the largest indoor archery tournament in the world. It will take place on February 8-10, 2019 at the South Point Hotel and Casino in Las Vegas, Nevada.
From Lancaster Archery Website:
***UPDATE!***
We've received an overwhelming response for the Women's Recurve division! With the number of archers already registered for this division, we are expanding the cut for eliminations from the top 8 archers to the top 16 qualifying scores! Payouts will remain the same.
The 2019 Lancaster Archery Classic is scheduled for Jan. 25-27 at the Spooky Nook Sports Complex in Manheim, Pa. And while it might not seem possible for the East Coast’s largest indoor archery tournament to get even bigger, the 2019 event promises just that. The 2017 Classic was the first at the massive Spooky Nook complex, which features 17 acres under roof, and it drew a record 1,100 archers from 13 countries. But there’s plenty of room for many more archers.
The 1,600-plus archers expected to enter the 2019 Classic will compete in 15 divisions for over $300,000 in prize and contingency money, including the top payout of $20,000 for the Open Pro champion. That’s a $5,000 increase over last year’s top prize. Read more...

Calvin/Janet,
Greetings from Austin, Texas! Quick note to share with you a few observations on the WF19 riser:
I’ll kick over some pics of the bow when I get it fully customized….I think you’ll like how Kuiu camo accents the black riser. 😊
Again…many thanks for wrapping such a great product in a wonderful Sales experience.
-Steve
Just received these pictures courtesy of Bert Sullivan of hunts of Rhett Palmer who uses his WF19 and Border Limbs. This is from his Texas hunt. The buck grossed over 160 lb! We love to post these pictures!
February 15, 2019: Good morning Janet, to my surprise customs cleared my package today already, so I'm now the proud owner of the 1st WF25X in Argentina!! YAY!!! Won't be able to test it until tomorrow, but just having it in my hands the quality is beyond impressive, kudos to all the team for a magnificent job!!
Hey Guys!
Just wanted to thank you again, I absolutely love my new WF19 riser. I haven't been able to put it down since I got it.
Close to 500+ arrows already. It shoots so nice I almost want to take my plunger out of my WF25X and shot off the rest like with the 19. It has great balance, great grip, and great color
(Bronze). Already built some GT Traditional XT's that fly amazing at 20 yds. Thank you so much for making Barebow Shooting such a great experience.

Good morning Cal!
I finally finished my new bow set up!! I did a rough turning in my garage with a variety of arrows and all shot well. This riser is very well made. It sits dead still balanced perfectly in my hand. I'm taking it to the range tomorrow for some serious shooting. From what I've experienced so far, I think this may turn out to be the riser I've been searching for. Pictures attached. I'll let you folks know my results... ALOHA! DAVE "Deep Woods"
Hi Cal!
Just to let you know the riser has arrived tonight.. all good.
Thank you so very much...looks fantastic and I'm sure it will shoot as well as it looks so I look forward to the morning.
Thank you for your help and the spare parts and wrench as well as set up.. The bow is now in its place of honor.. the Chinese believe that hanging a bow in a house is very good luck.. The calligraphy says "Black Dragon".. my Chinese name.
Once again thank you for a quality product and great service!
Regards, Peter Taylor (my Chinese name)
Hola mate,
Your riser has now made the trip from china to New Zealand.
Not had a chance to hunt with it yet other than a few rabbits but I thought you may like this picture.
I am very happy with the riser...bloody amazing
Thanks guys.
Peter taylor.
Martin Ottoson gave the riser for me two weeks ago in Sweden,So I shoot it ever since. I have only positive feedback of riser, and I can saythat Design has managed to brilliantly. Last weekend I shot WA 24 target fieldround in Riihimaki(Finland) I scoring 339 points with a few “stitch” mistakes.I am very pleased to riser and I will shoot all season with this riser.

We started this adventure into barebow innovation in the fall of 2014. As they say, "Necessity is the mother of invention!" We felt it was necessary to do what no one else would do - build a barebow riser right here in the USA.
So Calvin Smock and I, Dewayne Martin, knew we had a big advantage that most other manufacturers do not. We are serious archers that know exactly what we want. We know how a bow is supposed to feel and how it is supposed to shoot.
Calvin's son, Kevin Smock, had worked as a Product Designer for other companies as well as an archery company so we were able to show him exactly how we wanted this to be built. We wanted it to balance with no weights or stabilizers. He created the WF (weight forward) series. Kevin is also currently a knife maker and can be reached at www.smockknives.com.
We presented the prototype to the best barebow archers in the U.S. John Demmer III, Jennifer Stoner, Jared Neal, Alan Eagleton and Gary and Sandy McCain all were able to test it for at least a week. Their reports back to us were all considered. A few changes were made before first production.
We feel we have the ONLY choice for a Barebow riser out there today to meet the specifications of today's serious and competitive shooter. And for the not so serious, it will give you the confidence of shooting a proven winner.
If you choose to own this very innovative one of a kind product, we welcome your feedback!
Also please feel free to browse Kevin's website at www.smockknives.com and follow him on Instagram and Facebook.
