SHOOTERS RESUME
PAT DORIGATTI
Chuck,
Here is my most current resume and I look forward to discussing this further. You can also check out some information on the Bullseye Sights website at Just click on testimonials and then go down to my name and follow the link it is a good read. It covers my 2002 Winter Olympic Torchbearer information. I carried the Torch on opening day Feb. 8th 2002. I was one of the last 12 Torchbearers and was only 1-½ miles from the Stadium. Definitely one of the High Points of my life. With only 1,100 world wide carrying the torch.
A little about me. I started archery at the age 6. With a family history of competitive archers it was hard not to want to get involved. Currently my father has 38 years in and use to shoot quite a bit. My oldest brother 59 has 34 years in and shoots Archery in Illinois. My next older brother 48 has 30 years in and shoots in Reno Nevada. That leaves me; I have 36 years in as an NFAA member. I have 15 of those years as an NFAA Pro Freestyle member. All of us have been NFAA members ever since we started competition. I started competing in tournaments at the age of 7. The following is a list of my history, Instead of boring you with every single tournament or accomplishments, I will lump them together as much as possible. In 37 years there is a lot of information. Thank you again for the opportunity and consideration.

I was not able to compete in the 2000 season much, other than the local level due to the murder of my wife Cathy.
Pro Staff contracts I have are: Matin Archery 5 years total (recently resigned with them after 2 years off Stan Releases- 4 years, BCY fibers- 9 years, Winners Choice 9 years, Toxonics 9 Years, Gold Tip Arrows 5 years, Fist quivers (I am the co-designer and inventor of these quivers)-9 years, Brunton Optics 3 Years. Simms Vibration Labs Products 9 years. I was a Pro Staff shooter for GKF for 7 years but they as you know are out of business.
I use to own Bullseye Archery Pro Shop in Rock Springs Wy. (A small shop) for 8 years. I am also WELL known all over the world on all Archery Forums on the Internet as “Pro1” which is a tag name on the forums I have had for over 10 years. I am one of the founding members of Archerytalk.com and have been there since the beginning. I have helped invent and design several products including Magnocks, Fist Quivers (as listed above). And The “Bow Case Caddie”. As well as prototyping, improvement and testing products for all of my sponsors.
There are a few other things that I feel will help you to get to know me better. I am currently an NFAA Certified instructor (and have been for about 25 years now). I currently coach about 11 students. They range in age from 10 to50 and this is the most enjoyable thing that I do for the sport of Archery. I always participate in “Practice With The Pros” at Indoor Nationals. I also give shooting seminars and demonstrations at the local clubs and schools. I am also the “Wyoming State Archery Association” Parliamentarian and NFAA Range Inspector for the State of Wyoming. As you can see in 38 years I have about done it all. I hope this helps you think I will fit right in. Of course if you have any questions you can call me at any time at the numbers listed at the top of this resume .
Thank you for your time,
Pat Dorigatti
