**ABOUT THE SCHOOL**
Trusted By Archery Manufacturers Around The Country! Since 2015, Fulcrum's served as a premier global training center with clients traveling as far away as Australia! Clients range from hobby enthusiasts and pro shop owners/employees to university & national teams. We've also serve as a dealer training school for several bow manufacturers in the industry.
A comprehensive technician class designed from the ground up. Instead of watching online videos and/or a short class that over simplifies the industry; we focus on detail that can only be taught through extensive hands on & lengthy training. Our curriculum teaches all major brands and models, ensuring that our clients understand the technical differences behind the sticker (the brand). You learn the good, the bad, and the ugly about all manufactures! Rather, the pro's, con's, tradeoff's, and considerations that should be taken in to account. Additionally, understanding of how manufactures continuously update their product line ups with newer innovation & technology, altering the way one might approach a given model depending on what year it was designed.
This class historically has been composed of approximately 60% Pro Shop employees/owners in training, 20% hobby enthusiasts, and 20% archer's who live in rural areas that want to be self sufficient. Come join us for 3-5 days of hands on training that teaches the true science behind bow designs. Core chapters also include complete bow setup, maintenance, and tuning (including assembly from scratch).
