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.

Anyone who knows Bill Zonca will tell you he's an energetic outdoorsman and highly skilled, too.

With 30 years of shooting experience, Bill knows gear and has high standards when it comes to optics in particular.

"I have used just about every brand of binoculars available," Bill said."VANGUARD binoculars are crystal clear! I was able to pick out turkeys on their roost way before sunrise. Good optics are a must for me, I only consider using the best and I will put these binoculars up against anything on the market. Thank you for a great product; they are a permanent part of my hunting gear!"

Bill's hunts have been filmed for shows that air on Versus and the Outdoor Channel. He frequently attends events on behalf of Bowtech and other gear manufacturers to lend his advice about hunting and gear to fellow shooters.
