Archery icon Jim Easton, who passed away in December of 2023, was honored and remembered at the culmination of the world’s largest archery event- the 2024 Vegas Shoot Shootdown- on Sunday February 4th.

A standing room only crowd of over 6500 spectators put aside brand rivalries and came together to express their appreciation and respect for a man who has done more to advance the modern state of the sport than any other, with a moment of silence, and a celebration of Jim’s life.

With nearly 4500 participants, the 2023 Vegas Shoot set an all-time record for attendance, and Team Easton shooters took the vast majority of podiums, including the showcase Open shootdown for $58,000 dollars, taken by Denmark Team Easton archer Matthias Fullerton. It also saw Brady Ellison take his tenth Vegas Shoot title in Men’s recurve.
