Bobby Gene Lofton died at home on Sunday, August 3rd, 2008, in Indianola, Miss. He was 73.
Mr. Lofton was born in Skene, Miss. Before relocating to Indianola in 1975, he lived in Vicksburg and was employed at the Coca-Cola Bottling Co. Mr. Lofton was one of the first licensed bow hunters in the state of Mississippi. As a world renowned bowyer, he owned and operated Lofton Longbows, along with his wife, Lou, and had been involved with the crafting of archery equipment for over fifty years. He earned popularity among traditional archers all over the country and for the last seventeen years, the Mississippi Traditional Archery Association has held an annual tournament in Grenada, Miss. named in his honor called the "Lofton Classic."
