About Bowtech
The history of Bowtech is relatively short; however, it is full of successes. In 1999 John Strasheim and a partner had no intention of building bows but they had some revolutionary ideas for the archery industry and believed would change the way existing manufactures made bows.
The industry seemed to be only accepting change a little bit at a time, but Strasheim was convinced they were on to something really big, so they built a few bows and BowTech was born.
With the release of the 2000 model year, BowTech took their first archery trade show by storm and sales were 10 times more than anticipated.
In 2002 BowTech moves into a 60,000 square foot building on the outskirts of Eugene, Oregon. Located on 14 acres the relocation brought all of the operational and administrative functions of the company under one roof.
In 2004, BowTech acquires Diamond Archery.
In 2005 a revolutionized product line is introduced as the patent pending Binary Cam System.
In 2006, the Binary Cam System is introduced on all BowTech models.
In 2007 Bowtech introduces the Center Pivot riser technology in two models.
A 25,000 square foot expansion project, announced in November 2005, is completed. Not only did the company expand on its 14-acre lot, it also added two near-by manufacturing facilities, totaling another 55,000 square feet.
In October of 2007, the BowTech family of products was purchased by Savage Sports Corp
Today BowTech has grown from 3 to over 350 employees.
