Jim and Lynne Frady have proven that being married to your best friend and hunting buddy is a real combination. Their love for the outdoors is foremost in their lives. They both grew up in the Blue Ridge Mountains of Western North Carolina with families that knew the importance of the outdoors, hunting and fishing. Jim grew up in a trout stream and in the woods, he received his first bow at the age of 12.   He read and studied all he could to help him better understand archery and bowhunting.  Lynne began her love for the outdoors at the age of 3 on a trout stream and scouting for deer sign with her Father and brother.

With the addition of their daughter Leah they knew that they had to do all they could to give her the same opportunities they had. They decided to get involved in 3-D archery to help Lynne learn to judge yardage better and to spend time together outdoors. Jim coached Lynne to 5 consecutive Regional Women's Championships and also the 1998 North Carolina State Championship, Leah placed 3rd in her class at the State Championship the same year, she was the only girl in her class there. Their love for hunting has helped the Frady’s harvest over 70 big game and exotic animals.

They began teaching archery programs in local middle schools in the area where they live in 1996. They are both North Carolina Hunter Education Instructors and N.A.A. Level 1 Archery instructors. They knew the certifications would help them be able to do more archery programs for young people and women wanting to get involved in the outdoors and hunting.

Jim, with the advice of some very influential people in the archery industry became a machinist which has helped him better relate to his 30-year obsession with a bow. Lynne owns and operates Super Dog Obedience and Gun Dog Training, she has trained dogs for 22 years.  Her real love for hunting began with a Labrador Retriever named Star and hunting for quail and grouse near their mountain home.

Jim and Lynne also own Team Frady Archery Adventures, The Outdoor Advantage Group and Team Frady Angling Adventures.  With these companies they cover all forms of the shooting sports and fishing as well.  They consider themselves very lucky and feel they have the greatest sponsors in the hunting and fishing industry.  Thanks to their sponsors support they are able to do their programs and continue the adventure they set out on 12 years ago when they were married.

Now Jim, Lynne and Leah devote their time doing archery programs and have developed their mobile "Outdoor Classroom" they take to schools, camps, 4-H clubs, Boy Scouts of America troops, summer camps and camps for youth with terminal illness. They also have the privilege of instructing B.O.W. Programs (Becoming and Outdoors Woman) and the NWTF’s Women in the Outdoors.
