Jim White, who is now a level V Certified USA Archery coach, fell in love with archery after he saw a man in a field shooting, and he was invited over to shoot his first shot and Jim hit the paper target. That was in 1965 in North Carolina while Jim was in the Air Force. Then in 1970 while living in North Ohio , Jim was partner with his brother-in-law in a pro shop, indoor and outdoor range. They competed, ran classes and managed indoor league competitions. Jim started coaching in 1996 and progressed through the coaching levels to current level 5 in 2010. Jim was President of Kennesaw Archery Club 1997-2005, and then became Vice President until about March 2015. Jim has also been Vice President of the Georgia Archery Association since around 2005.
