Any archery shop in Bellingham?
« on: September 08, 2013, 09:15:34 PM »
My son's bow started shooting "off" to the right 1 foot at 20 yds.  Any shop in Bellingham that can help him get it set back up?

Dave's in Lynden, Wilderness Archery in Bow or Riverside Archery in Mount Vernon.  I would go with Riverside and you won't be disappointed.   :tup:

 :yeah: Those are the 3 closest pro shops to where you live.
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.

Wilderness and riverside have indoor ranges so that you could shoot the bow to get the modifications right. Does Dave's In Lynden have one? IDK

I would avoid Dave's.  Dave is a great guy, but his employees can be extremely difficult to deal with.

They do not have an indoor range.

Riverside is outside of mt Vernon and worth the drive.
Old enough to know better.
Young enough to go for it.

Personally I'd drive down to Riverside.  The new Mayberry Sporting goods shop on Holly St has an indoor range now, not sure if they're selling equipment though.

Are you talking abut the sporting goods store that is down town in the old bowling alley?

Didn't know a sporting goods store moved into the old bowling alley.  This would be the Mayberry Sporting Goods store that was on Cornwall Ave. across from B'ham High School.  They've moved down near the waterfront on Holly St.  Not sure the reason for the move, I'm sure rent played a large role, but the new place is super tiny.

He stopped at Riverside, I believe.
Says he had a great experience learning about his bow and equipment.
Spent over $300 on stuff (broadheads, target, quiver, etc)
