Our Staff
Kyna Stephens
Co-Owner, Professional Archer and Expert Technician
Kyna began her archery career with LEA and quickly ascended to the top of the sport, claiming numerous titles including 2019 Texas ASA High School Female Shooter of the Year and State Champion, the 2020 Hoyt Pro-Am High School Female Champion, and back to back Texas ASA Women’s Known 50 State Championships. Kyna went pro in 2023, competing in the ASA Women’s Known Pro division for 3D and NFAA Women’s Pro for indoor archery. She took the bronze position on the podium at the 2024 Black Eagle Darton Pro/Am. Kyna is an accomplished hunter as well. Growing up on large, intensively-managed South Texas ranches, she has harvested well over 100 animals with firearms and bows, including a Mouflon ram that ranks in the top 5 SCI archery sheep. Kyna is a USA Archery Level 2 Instructor with a passion for helping kids and adults hone their skills.
After apprenticing at the shop since 2018, the opportunity arose for Kyna to purchase LEA with her parents, Tye and Cynthia. She is a skilled technician, specializing in custom arrow builds and tuning equipment to peak performance. Her drive and work ethic has helped her rise to the top of the sport, and is evident from the moment you walk in the door. Her goal is to involve as many people as possible in archery and help them achieve their goals.
