Gander Mountain Presents Vendor of the Year to Diamond by BowTech

ST. PAUL, Minn., December 12, 2007 -- At its 2007 Vendors Summit in Minneapolis, outdoors retailer Gander Mountain honored Diamond by BowTech with the “Vendor of the Year” award.

“Diamond has been a great partner for Gander Mountain in serving our customers’ archery products and accessories needs,” said Mark Baker, CEO of Gander Mountain. “We are proud to sell their products in our stores and are pleased with the enthusiasm our customers show for Diamond’s bows.”

Diamond by BowTech is based in Eugene, Oregon, and was founded in 1999 by John Strasheim.  They are the fastest growing archery company and the world’s largest supplier of bows. The company’s philosophy, “Refuse to Follow” has led them to continue to innovate and create new standards in the bow industry. The company’s bows are known in the archery world for their accuracy, speed and quality workmanship.

“Diamond by BowTech is honored to receive this recognition from Gander Mountain,” said Strasheim, CEO of BowTech.  “With Gander Mountain’s 115 stores in 23 states, they provide an expansive audience for our products and have helped us build customer loyalty for our brand.”

Gander Mountain sells the Diamond brand of compound bows and the Stryker brand of crossbows, both divisions of BowTech.  Gander Mountain and BowTech also worked together to develop the Guide Series brand TecHunter Elite Bow, which performs quietly and consistently in all conditions from the range to the field.
