Great Northwest Archery
« on: August 24, 2011, 01:03:26 PM »
I'm not sure if Doug from Great Northwest Archery is a member on here but i just want to thank him  for helping me out yesterday with my new set up.

I had to change my entire set up from string and cables, rest, sights, and arrows and one of the local archery shops which I'm not going to bad mouth set if up were i had almost no room to adjust any of the pins because of my peep postion. Doug had me come inside and shoot then made some changes for me until i was good to go and all at no cost. If any local members on here have not been there I would recommend checking him out of ever need anything done. Thanks again.

Where are they located? I was actually going to make a post about getting my bow tuned, the only shop i have had work on my bow is in Spokane, so i don't feel like making a six hour drive to have my bow tuned  :chuckle:

If you want you can PM the address to me. I would like to find a place that i know will do a solid job on tuning and actually care about there work, instead of get someone in and out as fast as possible.

Doug does know his stuff, He is pretty sold on Hoyt thou,  When I first came to his shop it was down off river road, At first i did not care for him he was really grouchy , Come to find out he was going thru a divorce or something so I can see why :chuckle:
He is good at what he does..

I've known Doug for more than 20 years. He's as honest as they come and really knows what he's doing.
I too wish he sold Mathews.

I've only known Doug since fall of 2007, but I bought a PSE through his shop and a bunch of accessories.  He is always helpful.

I've supported Doug for a few years, certainly the best shop in Puyallup....

Same crap happened to me from Van Winkles..I am never going back.  Nothing like being out in the woods and having to fix every freakin arrow in your case.

Doug and I did not see eye to eye years ago as he used to run with someone that is currently in jail for wildlife crimes and another that is really something else. (LONG TIME AGO)  Since I work on my own equipment I do not use any shop very often. But if I do need something I will use him as I live pretty close . 

Rainier...   I have a couple of friends that will never step foot in there again.

This thread has shown that if you like a shop stick with it.  History has shown that bad service spreads faster then good service.  I do like this thread as you never hear the good service very often.

I have purchased three bows from Doug and will be taking my current bow in soon to get new strings.  He's been a good guy to deal with and I highly recommend him.

 I will never buy a bow from anyone other than doug. He has always been a straight shooter with me and has always gone out of his way to be helpful. :tup:

Dougs a great guy,but I go to Craig at fletch setter out by Yelm.I think he cares a little bit more about his costomers and his prices are better,Lilly cares only about himself and cash but his shop is cool.
