I'm in the same boat.  Grizzly here in Yakima does an ok job but he is so slow.  Usually a month or more turn around on bow work.

I started jumping over the hill to Denton at Rock Creek Archery.  He flat out knows his stuff and has a quick turn around.  I'd recommend him highly.

 :tup:  I live 2 minutes away from him.  I have been really happy every time I've used him.

Buy a bow press , build a draw board and learn it yourself. It's not that hard to learn especially with the internet . Once you learn there is no more waiting , excuses and disappointment . There is a lot of satisfaction with doing your own work and then shooting a perfectly tuned bow , something I've never gotten from a pro shop .
Where can you find a reasonably priced press?  The shop I have been using installs what you buy from them for free, so a press is a bit of a novelty to me at this point.  The looking I have done the presses are the cost of a midline bow, just well beyond what a home user would want?  I could be missing something entirely though.  I would like to have one, being a mechanic myself I much prefer doing my own work on anything I own, I just cannot justify the pricetag I have been seeing for a press.

I picked up a used EZ press a couple years ago off archerytalk for $150 , turned out the guy was local so no shipping . I've seen a few used one every now and then , but I would have bought new if I hadn't found a used one . It's been worth it to me . The one draw back or good thing depending on who's side you are looking at it is that I do end up working on a lot of my friends bows . And yes , shops will install what you buy for free , but are they doing it right ? If you work on your own bow you will always know .

Great Northwest Archery in Puyallup. Located at Skookum Archery range.
Doug Hyder is hands down the best for all of your bow work. Hoyt and Matthews dealer. Fully stocked proshop and indoor range.
Lessons and instructions are available for all skill levels with World Champion archer Sean Elza.
Very professional service. I highly recommend this shop.

I've always shot Hoyt and found a Hoyt guy in eastern Oregon that does great work and has same day service out of his small shop. Couldn't be happier to make the drive.


What's his name and number? Currently looking for a good Hoyt guy.
