Correy Hawk is a professional bowyer who comes from a long line of outdoorsmen. He grew up in a small village in Southeast Nebraska, where, along with his siblings, he was raised to hunt, fish, forage for wild foods, and navigate the wilderness. His father put a bow and arrows in his hands as soon as he could understand their utility. From an early age he developed deep respect and appreciation for the land and all the creatures that call it home. ​

As a young adult, Correy put down his bow for a while and joined the United States Marine Corps, where he served two combat tours as a Recovery Operator in Afghanistan. After returning to Nebraska, he was once again spellbound by traditional archery.

“It’s a practice to go out there and shoot even on the days that I don’t want to or even on the days that I’m shooting poorly…”

— Correy Hawk

Correy built bows as an ardent hobbyist for six years before Organic Archery became a full-time endeavor in 2018. He now not only carves incredibly beautiful and functional bows for a vast clientele, but he also operates a bow carving school. Correy is consumed by this craft, deeply cherishing the art of bowmaking and the mystical flight of the arrow.
