Become a Partner of Jace Walters Recreation
Jace Walters is a 13 year old national podium level archer from Elyria Ohio that travels all around Ohio, the U.S.A and Canada competing in archery tournaments. Jace has also been a High Honor Roll Student for the last three years. Jace is lucky to have the support of a couple local archery ranges that believe in him. Rich Hardway is the owner of Black River Archery (Elyria, OH), this is Jace's primary indoor practice range. Jace started shooting archery with Rich in 4H. When it's time to shoot outdoors Jace goes to The LaGrange Hunt Club (LaGrange, OH), there he can shoot as far as he needs to on bag or 3D targets. Then when we travel south Billy Lawson of Archery World USA (Fairfield, OH) helps us out. Whether it just be providing Jace a place to practice / warm up for events in southern Ohio, do an emergency repair to Jace's bow.
At the age of 5 Jace shot a bow for the first time. He liked it, but it was just something to do for fun when we didn't have a dirt bike race to go to. At the age of 8 Jace and his brother took archery in 4H Shooting Sports, and it kept his interest enough that at the age of 9 he got his first real compound bow (Bear Apprentice 2). A month later in 2017 Jace competed in the Ohio Archers Association (Ohio NFAA Series) and finished 3rd in the shooter of the year in the 11 and under male bow hunter class. During that first season of competitive archery after having watched a video of Matt Stutzman 'The Armless Archer', Jace then decided that he wanted to become the best archer in the world. In 2019 Jace earned his first national podium, at the First Dakota Class in Yankton, SD; and earned another 2 national podiums that year. Now Jace travels all around Ohio, the U.S.A and Canada competing in archery tournaments. In order for Jace to compete like he does, it takes some serious dedication on Jace's part and financial support from sponsors and supporters. In 2020 Jace moved up to the 14 and under class and started the year finishing on the podium at 4 State indoor events; USA Archery, Junior Olympic Archery Development, National Field Archery Association and Scholastic 3D Archery. For outdoors Jace won the Ohio 3D Group (unknown 3d achery) Shooter of the Year with tournament records in qualifying events and in the championship round. Currently 2nd in points for Shooter of the Year in the Ohio Archers Association, and won 2 national podiums in the IBO - International Bowhunting Organization (Field Rounds).
