Bowhunters of America is a non-denominational ministry to the
bow hunting world. It was incorporated in the state of Michigan
on July 23, 1984 and the Founder is Rev. David L. Roose of
Cadillac. He is also the former president of Michigan Bow
Hunter, and a regular member of the Professional Bowhunters
Society and Pope & Young. He also was the State Host Chairman of
the 1995 Pope & Young Convention at Grand Traverse Lodge in
Grand Traverse Bay, MI.
In February 1998, Dr. Wally Harder was appointed CBA's first
Executive Director. His duties included the coordination of
shows and shoots, speaking engagements, correspondence and
various other duties to help organize CBA more effectively.
On August 1st, 2002, the CBA board reorganized electing board
member Bob Johnson to Administrative Coordinator and Dr. Harder
to Ministry Coordinator. Bob's duties focus on fund-raising and
administering archery events, and Wally's duties are now
concentrated on ministering and counseling to Bowhunters.
We have over 2000 members covering all fifty states. We have 43
chapters and every year there is an Annual Shoot where CBA'rs
can gather to shoot and fellowship together. This year we have
over sixty events scheduled. Typical of those events are sports
shows and archery shoots. When we go to these events we set up a
booth to meet the public and tell them about CBA and our Savior.
On Sunday morning we conduct a worship service for those who are
interested. Wherever we go some join us and that bow hunting
ministry of the Lord grows in strength.
