Last weekend, archers from across the globe converged upon Lausanne, Switzerland, competing in the Men’s Compound event in the World Cup Final. Winner Bridger Deaton, an American rookie, entered the finals with a fifth-place ranking and eventually faced the world’s number-one ranked shooter, France’s PJ Deloche.
Deaton emerged victorious, but what makes his showing even more impressive is his pedigree: Deaton is the third Mathews Pro Staffer in a row to win this event. The U.S.-based bowhunting-equipment company is well-known to outdoorsmen, and its commitment to the sport and its team members should come as no surprise.
Mathews works closely with its Pro Staff members to find the right set up for each individual to compete at their highest level. For Bridger Deaton it didn’t take long to get there. “Once we got Bridger set up, his confidence grew quickly,” said Phillips. “Seeing Mathews Pros dominate the world’s most prestigious outdoor archery event for three years running, proves we have the best shooters and the best bows in the world.”
