Our Story

Welcome to The Rusty Buck! I’m thrilled to share the story of our family-owned business and how we’ve grown from a humble archery shop to a beloved hub for all things outdoor in the heart of Versailles, Indiana. We opened our doors in 2018 with a passion for archery, and I can confidently say that every step of our journey has been driven by our love for the sport and our commitment to our customers.

When we first launched in Versailles, we set out to create more than just a shop; we wanted to build a community. Our focus was on archery, and we quickly gained a reputation for our top-notch service. With a team of skilled bow techs, we made it our mission to help every customer find their perfect fit. Whether you’re a seasoned archer or just starting out, our goal is to ensure that you leave with not only the right equipment but also the knowledge to make the most of your experience.

Fast forward to 2023, and we’re excited to announce our expansion into Batesville! This new location allows us to serve an even larger community of outdoor enthusiasts. While we’ve broadened our offerings to include hunting and fishing equipment, trophy stands, apparel, and archery lessons, our core values remain unchanged. At The Rusty Buck, we believe in providing a personalized experience for every customer.

What sets us apart is our commitment to education. We take pride in sharing our expertise with you, whether you’re seeking advice on the best gear for your needs or tips for improving your skills. Our indoor archery range is a space where you can test out equipment, guided by our friendly team who are always ready to lend a helping hand. We genuinely care about helping you succeed, and we love to watch our customers grow in their understanding of archery and hunting.

As a family-run business, we understand the importance of building relationships. We want The Rusty Buck to feel like a welcoming haven where you can come in, chat with us, and learn about everything from the latest gear to hunting strategies. Our goal is to foster a sense of belonging—a place where you can feel comfortable asking questions and exploring your interests.

We are proud to serve Versailles and the surrounding areas as the leading outdoor and sporting goods store. Our dedication to quality, service, and community is at the forefront of everything we do. Whether you’re looking for hunting gear, fishing supplies, or just want to talk about the latest trends in outdoor lifestyle, we’re here for you.

Thank you for being a part of our journey. We look forward to helping you embark on your own outdoor adventures at The Rusty Buck—where your passion for the great outdoors meets our commitment to exceptional service.

Testimonials

On 10/21/2024 Jeff Eckstein had this to say:
Great help! I called them and told them what kind of muzzle loader I bought from someone. I asked if they have all the stuff I need for it. They told me I. A bring it along and they’d help me out. Not only did they supply me with the correct powder, balls, and accessories, they showed me the correct measurements of powder and how to use it correctly. Way above what I expected. Next, I took me old recurve bow in and they basically did the same thing. Restrung it, and showed me how to for next time. Had me shoot it and made arrows for me that fit perfectly. I’ve bought my crossbow from them. I’ve bought a few guns from them. I’ve bought accessories from them. And I’ve bought much ammo from them. Always friendly and helpful. Even when I’ve just gone in and bothered them with questions.

Stopped in looking for 2 rifles chambered in 22 long rifle for some father and daughter shooting fun. They had exact models I was looking for in stock. Nathan was knowledgeable and made it a simple and fast shopping experience. Don't count out your local small town shops when shopping they have a great inventory for everyone's needs.
