Fire at the Martin Plant

Bummer

It looks like nobody was hurt, that is a good thing.
I hope they had good insurance.

That ain't good.

Sorry to hear that. Damon Howatt & Martin Archery have always made great bows.

That's bad news. I hope they can recover. No telling how many bows were destroyed.

That would be sad if they go under

Looks like a total loss. I feel bad for the owners and equally as bad for all the folks that work there. Imagine not having a job to go to today after 20 years or so, and not really knowing if your job will ever come back.
It is tough. Some things Insurance just cannot replace.

Really sad to here this news. Dan Quillian sold more Martin bows back in the 90s than probably any dealer around. I started my modern compound hunting with a Martin Firecat. Bought both my boys Martin Lynx bows in the early 90s when they were old enough to pull em back. Lots of memories made with my boys shooting Martin bows.
