Post Show Shot - The Beau + Arrow Experience

What we learned post Shot Show is that the gun industry is more of a community, especially amongst the women. There is a supportive circle that is inclusive and desiring of more women to join and it stems from the women themselves. As a newcomer to the industry and the event, we were made to feel welcome and embraced.

The category Beau + Arrow is representing is the "gray man," or in our case, "the gray woman" of the industry. It is the gun owner that doesn't necessarily proclaim herself to be one. She doesn't shout loudly about her passions but she does love shooting and she exists. However, she also loves other things equally - fashion, travel, wine, city living, rural adventures, etc. What would be so surprising for mass media to know is that the majority of women at Shot Show also love these things. A woman who owns a gun and a woman who doesn't is still a woman. She still loves the same clean, beautiful aesthetics in a firearm or a handbag. And we were thrilled to have met so many of you. So thank you for embracing us. Thank you for supporting us. And thank you for making us feel part of the group.
