My name is Gary Hall and I have been making arrows for over 20 years. As a kid I grew up in my father's archery pro shop here in Connecticut. I spent most of my weekends there. Getting up early with my father and heading to work with him whenever I could.  I did this for years until one day the old man gave me a job making and repairing the rental arrows for the indoor archery range. Not long after that I started making arrows for a few customers in the store.  I was the kid in the back that made the arrows and within a few years I was the guy that made ALL the arrows for the shop.  
My father and I wanted a smaller archery pro shop, one that was based more around hunting and traditional archery.  We also wanted one that was more about the customer and having them become a friend, rather than a just person in the store to spend money.  We wanted to have fun again at work, and so we started Andover Archery together. It started out slow and small and now it seems to have taken off and is going great.  And again I was the guy making the arrows and I loved it.
During this time I met my wife Jessica and she gave me two little boys Mark and Dylan and I had a family of my own.  Spending more money on gas and daycare then with what the store could pay, I decided to stay home with my boys and work part time in the town I live in, and turn the store front over to my father and let him run with it on his own.
But I could not just stop being involved with archery - it's all I really know and love other than my family. So I am starting D&M Custom Arrows. The D&M stands for Dylan and Mark.  I hope this is something I can someday pass down to them. For me, making arrows is a passion and if there is one thing I would like to teach my boys it's if you are passionate about something then go with it whole heartedly no matter what! And that's what I am going to do with D&M Custom Arrows.
I will have a full color brochure ready to mail out in January 2013, but until then I thought the best place to start is here on TRAD GANG.  Here are a few samples of my work - all of my arrows are made with right wing TrueFlight feathers. I do try to stock every color that they offer and I use Beman Bowhunters and ICS Hunters for my stock shafts in all sizes. I use many Easton and Beman products but have access to others, if there is something special you are looking for, please feel free to ask.  Most of my arrows cost $120.00 a dozen, which includes shipping to the lower 48. I will cut and install inserts for no extra charge.   I look forward to serving your arrow needs and working with you in the future.
Thank you,
Gary D Hall
