  • Avient recently sponsored the National Archery in the Schools Program (NASP) archery championship in Myrtle Beach, South Carolina, where students in grades 4-12 from across the country showcased their skills using Brennen Genesis archery bows. The limbs on these bows are made from Gordon Glass™ material by Avient, offering high fatigue strength, deep deflection, and consistent performance. We’re proud to support NASP in their mission to promote instruction in international-style target archery as part of the in-school curriculum. We believe this not only fosters an appreciation for the sport but also helps to grow the industry and the next generation of skilled archers.
