About Us

We are an independent owned and operated small business that first opened its doors in 2003. Since then we have expanded to two locations, continually offering great customer service and the highest quality outdoor products. Beyond the brands and expansive inventory we carry as a retailer, we at Outdoor Source are committed to sharing our own experiences with customers. Our staff doesn't just sell what we carry, but uses it in outdoor activities on our own time. In addition to offering logistical product specifications, we are eager to share our own gear opinions and stories with you in order to help meet your needs.

History of Our Shop

Who are we? We are outdoor enthusiasts who, like you, love the outdoors and the gear we use. We enjoy what we do and the environment in which we do it.

Outdoor Source owner Andy Graham worked for a large specialty outdoor store in Columbus, The Benchmark, prior to its closing in 2003. Embracing the outdoor lifestyle, Andy decided to open his own outdoor shop and continue the tradition of quality gear and knowledge of the outdoors in Columbus. Andy, with the help of Ryan Hamler and other former Benchmark employees opened Outdoor Source in the fall of 2003.

Andy's goal is to provide the Central Ohio area with the best selection of outdoor brand names and the highest quality gear available. Education over salesmanship is his philosophy. With a strong passion for the outdoors and friendly, knowledgeable staff, Outdoor Source has quickly become the benchmark for outdoor specialty stores in Ohio. With the help of our customers, Outdoor Source will continue to grow and begin new adventures.

The Outdoor Source is here to expand this vision to a broader range of people who share our same enthusiasm.
