Archery shop recommendation
« on: September 20, 2011, 02:06:48 PM »
Looking for a honest shop on the west side to set up my sons bow. He has a AR Velocity, it needs new modules & draw length adjusted. He also needs arrows cut. Any help is much appreciated.

What area are you looking to find the shop?  Wetside is a lot of ground.

We're in Kent, willing for a road trip. We've always used shops in Utah, just not familiar with any of the Wa. shops. Thanks for the help.

Take a road trip to the Oly Pen and hit up Bull of the Woods archery in Sequim, WA then hit the dungeness spit.
Take up your bow, a quiver full of arrows, head out to the country and hunt some wild game.  GEN 27:3

Go see Dennis at the Federal Way Wholesale Sports.  He works Wednesday and Thursday evenings.  Or see Ryan at the new Sportsman's Warehouse on the south Puyallup hill.  I've also heard good things about the Nock Point (already mentioned), but have no personal experience, there.

Wholesale and Sportsmen's are probably not going to be able to get you the modules you need.  Lucky Shot, Nock Point and Riverside (Mt Vernon) will probably be your best bets for that.

Who would be able to get AR parts?  Didn't PSE buy them a few years ago, then shortly there after ended the line?  Sportsman WH used to carry AR back in the day.  Even so, who is anyone going to call to get AR mods???

I think you can still find some parts through PSE.  Although I am sure the supply is very thin.  If not available a good shop would then try to work you up a sweet upgrade deal with PSE.

Wrong.  I've worked at Wholesale Sports, and I work at Sportsman's Warehouse now.  Either one is a PSE dealer and can get whatever AR parts that are available.  Sportsman's still has over 25 stores, some that have been around for a while.  It would take a little work, but I could probalbly get the modules you need.  No guarantees until we see the bow.

That's good news!  Glad to see that process working better.  Used to take forever and then no guarantee.  If anyone got back to you at all.  I pleasantly stand corrected.

Thanks for all the help guys, my cousin shoots for PSE. He's sending me the modules. I think i'll go with the Nock Piont for the installation, looks like they carry PSE.

I went to all the shops from Mount Lake Terrace to Bow and found that Wilderness Archery in Bow did a good job of setting me up with a nice bow package.  Sounds like it will be a bit of a road trip for you but I liked them.  Good luck!

Riverside Archery Gary  does a great job! Not to mention he supports the archery clubs in the area... Silverarrow and Whidbey...  :tup:
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.

If you're not too far from Puyallup, Doug at Great Northwest Archery is knowledgeable and as honest as they come.
