In Episode #2 of the United Archery Podcast, we sit down with Micah Gitlewski, a 17-year-old archer who is already heavily involved in the archery world.
We talk about Micah’s background in archery, what it’s like working at an archery shop, his experiences bowhunting, shooting target archery, competing in S3DA, and some of the equipment he uses.
It was a fun conversation covering a little bit of everything and hearing the perspective of a young archer who has already spent a lot of time around the sport.
