John Dudley has spent over two decades at the intersection of competitive archery and bowhunting education. His Nock On YouTube channel is the definitive resource for archery fundamentals: bow tuning, arrow selection, form correction, and shot execution. Dudley competed at the highest levels of 3D archery before shifting his focus to teaching, and his detailed technical breakdowns have made him the first stop for anyone serious about picking up a bow. He left Hoyt for PSE Archery in 2020, but returned to Hoyt in August 2024 when his PSE contract expired. That same month, he joined Origin USA as a "Brand Maverick." He hunts primarily in the western states, with a focus on elk and mule deer.
