On this week's episode of the Pennsylvania Woodsman we interview an archery legend, Sherwood Schoch. Sherwood is originally from Boyertown, Pennsylvania, and was one of the four men responsible for developing and marketing the first compound bow. He worked side by side with Tom Jennings and changed the industry forever with Jennings compound bows. This interview will be broken into two episodes.  
In part one, we learn about Sherwood's introduction to hunting and archery, leading to his job as an archery magazine editor after his service in the Navy. From here, Sherwood shares his experience shooting at the highest level of competition archery, winning a national championship, and the doors that continued to open through this journey. That journey would snowball into developing a compound bow and leading seminars all across the country to promote the compound as a valid hunting weapon during the archery hunting season. You'll hear connections with big names including Pete Shepley, Fred Bear, Ben Pearson, Tom Jennings, and many other archery legends. Be sure to watch out for part two soon!
