VANGUARD Pro Staffers are winning local, state, national and world archery championship titles, raising funds to take servicemen and women injured in the line of duty and terminally-ill children on adventurous hunts, managing popular ranges and shops, teaching archery in after-school programs, leading regional archery associations and clubs, and more. Though they're diverse in experience, age, background and industry involvement, VANGUARD's Pro Staff members share common loves: Archery, the outdoors and VANGUARD sporting optics. Scattered across North America and in Australia, too, this mix of energetic teens to seasoned pros with decades of experience all agree: VANGUARD binoculars and spotting scopes run laps around the big-name optics they used before discovering us.

Favorite VANGUARD product: Endeavor ED 1045 binoculars

"VANGUARD is the best optics and bow case company in the world!" Rick said."I use my Endeavor ED on a range with really long, dark tunnels with black targets. When I used another optics brand, I could not see any scoring rings. Thanks to Endeavor ED 1045, I can now see the scoring rings! Whoever thinks there is no real difference between VANGUARD and the other brand, just pick up a VANGUARD pair! I am truly impressed."
