When you watch Realtree Outdoors, you are learning from the best in the industry. Bill Jordan travels the country in search of all types of game, from waterfowl and turkey, to deer, elk, bear, and more.

About Bill Jordan
He grew up with a fishing pole in his hands and a lake behind his house. He made his
decision to play football at the University of Mississippi based on the amount of hunting
land close to campus. He started Realtree because he wanted to run a business that
affected the outdoors in a positive light. He is Bill Jordan — Realtree is his vision come
to life.

Since 1983 and the introduction of Spartan Archery Products, Jordan’s first company, he
has dreamed of creating products that hunters deem necessary in the woods. From the
first pattern of bark, which was literally traced from an old oak that still stands in his
parents’ yard, to Jordan’s latest pattern, All-Purpose, innovation has, and always will be
the key to Realtree’s success.

Today, Jordan and Realtree still believe in connecting people to the outdoors. From new
partners to old hunting friends, Realtree truly is about Family, Friends and the Outdoors.
Jordan lives with his wife, Shannon, in Columbus. They have two children, Tyler and
Graycen.

wildlife. Whether its chasing whitetails in Illinois or elk in Colorado, his countless hours
