Blog posts of '2023' 'September'

In the south, we have false seasons. False Spring where we have a few warm days only to be followed by a couple weeks of bitter cold and lousy weather. Then we have false Summer. This is where the mercury creeps up into the 90s, but the water is still in the 50-60s– too cold to swim, but hot enough you want to. Then the weather shifts back down to the 70s for highs and you forget about those few warm days.

How do you really thank your customers for being dedicated fans of your brand and your products? There’s several ways this can be done. Our social media team will publish user generated content when given permission to do so. We offer sales and discounts through our Umarex Club Newsletter, and we also do as many public-focused events as we can. It never seems like enough, though. We have a great and growing group of fans and that not only feels good, but it has pushed Umarex Airguns up from a relative unknown to THE leading force in the airgun industry.

Umarex Airguns is excited to participate in the World Champion Squirrel Cook Off on Sept. 23. Held at the Ozark Highlands Nature Center in Springdale, Ark., the cook off is a celebration of the Ozarks and the humble squirrel. Forty teams from around the nation are expected to compete for the championship. Each three-person team has three hours to prepare their squirrel dish and a side for the judges.
