Tulalip and Diamond Archery Infinite Edge
« on: October 29, 2012, 01:37:38 PM »
I've got a couple questions for you guys on here:

1.  Has anyone had a good or bad experience with Tulalip Cabelas Archery?

2.  Anyone tried the Diamond Archery Infinite Edge?

I'm 48, new to archery, and looking for a compound to shoot turkey.  My kid has a Diamond Edge Razor and it has served him well.  Wondering about this Infinite Edge.

Thanks for any thoughts!

I would recommend a archery pro shop for your first bow.

I asked a similar question of someone I ride the sounder train with to work, and was also told stay away from Cabela's when starting out. He suggested The Nock Point Archery Center. I have not had a chance to get down there myself yet, but I was told that they are super helpful to beginners and that you can pay a small rental fee, and spend the whole day there trying out pretty much every bow they carry.

I bought my first bow at Cabela's, but my fishing partner was with me and knew how to set it up. 

I recently went to the nock point to have my destroyer 340 strings tightened, and the pro shop guy did a really good job (well, other than telling me how much he disliked my bow)

As i see it here is kind of the pro's and Cons of buying away from a pro shop. You can find better deals on Craigslist, or other stores, or the internet that sell archery equipment. Sometimes you can find the accessory that the pro shop doesn't carry.  I have meet more than one person that bought thier first bow off the internet or craigs list. By the time they got it set up right for them, right draw length, accessories on and set up properly etc they didn't really save that much. If you work with an experienced archer it may work out better for you.  In my experience you pay for the service and expertise one way or the other. The slightly more expensive bow, rest etc and the free service that comes with it, or the slightly less expensive parts that you have to figure out your self...
In archery we have something like the way of the superior man. When the archer misses the center of the target, he turns round and seeks for the cause of his failure in himself.

The Nock Point rocks.

" In today's instant gratification society, more and more pressure revolves around success and the measurement of one's prowess as a hunter by inches on a score chart or field photos produced on social media. Don't fall into the trap. Hunting is-and always will be- about the hunt, the adventure, the views, and time spent with close friends and family. " Ryan Hatfield

Thanks everyone for your comments.  I'll be heading to the Nock Point to see what I can find.  My limited experience is in line with your suggestions.  When I got my son his first bow it was at Cabelas in Lacy.  They put the whisker biscuit on backwards and it wasn't until another archer in the store saw it that it got fixed.  This sounds like perhaps this wasn't a singular event if others have experienced similar things.
