Hall of Fame

Resume Form

The California Archery Hall of Fame was founded in 1976, as a means of honoring California archers who have made outstanding contributions to the sport of archery in California.

The introduction of new equipment for archery, the ability to consistently shoot top scores, the prowess of the bow hunter to take big and small game, the time spent in attending meetings to preserve our bow hunting rights, the hour upon hour spent in building and maintaining archery courses, the continued promotion of archery at every opportunity are some of the characteristics of the California Archery Hall of Fame members.

The individuals listed below; manufacturers, inventors, competitive archers, dealers, bow hunters, legislators, have, each in their own way, made archery the great sport it is today. Enthusiasm for and love of archery is the common bond among them all. 1977 Henry Bitzenberger "Babe" Bitzenberger James Easton Mary Easton Howard Hill Roy Hoff Hugh Rich John Yount Saxon Pope Rube Powell Doc Smalley Art Young Lou Ann Ryan, Olympic Champion 1978 Harry Drake Frank Eicholtz Dud Lawrence Ken Wilhelm Walt Wilhelm Lucille Shine 1979 Wm.
