38 years ago, Stanislawski Archery changed the way we shoot release aids. With the invention of the triggerless backtension release aid, STAN paved the way for decades of wins and perfect scores. In the early 1970's Mel Stanislawski started redesigning archery accessories because the quality of products that were available at the time left Mel thinking that there had to be a better way.

Mel was a fantastic archer during the days of the "Desert Inn Classic" which would later be called "The Vegas Shoot". Mel shot the first ever 300 score on the new 40cm face. This performance created a high demand for Mel's latest invention… The triggerless Backtension Release Aid. Over the next several decades Stanislawski release aids would win more tournaments than any other release aid on the market. 2008 turned out to be another banner year for STAN, with wins at most national events.

In 2001, Copper John Corp purchased Stanislawki Archery Products from Mel and are proud to carry on Mel's tradition of excellence.  Our Product Designers, Engineers, Machinists, Quality Control Professionals, and Professional Shooting Staff are devoted to delivering the highest quality release aids possible. We are also dedicated to the sport of archery and hope to create products that enhance your archery experience.
