After I got my bow restrung in Chehalis, my husband thought he'd have his done, he shoots a Hoyt so had to go to Bobs ,
They really did a crappy job, it is nosey, they didn't put the string leaches in, they put a D string when we asked them not to we don't shoot with one, they didnt do a serving where it hits the string
Just not happy, Dang it,

That's too bad. I really like Bob's for outdoor gear.
I don't bow hunt (yet), but I always hear good things about XXX Archery (http://xxxarchery.com/) in Rainier Oregon. Too bad you didn't go there......... :(
-
take it to triple xxx and see corey he put on a new string on my pse bow madness 3 g. he can make pretty much any color you want and he does a great job you wont be sorry!
-
Take it back and say to them exactly what wrong with the new string annd let them correct the problem.

After dealing with multiple bow shops in an attempt to get a replacement part for my bow, only bobs offered to help. The others shops advised me to call the manufacturer. When I showed up they looked at the part I needed, pulled a new bow off the shelf, removed the part, handed it to me and said have a nice day. Amazing customer service. I bet they bend over backwards to solve your issues. I was going to have a new string placed after the season let us know how the fix went. D

Have them fix it. May i ask why you dont shoot D-loops?
-
...........isn't taking his bow to Oregon to get fixed, outsourcing ? :chuckle: :sry:

We just have never shot with D loops and now after 15 years are kinda use to how we are shooting. Nothing against them, just don't want to change a good thing :) Like my dad says if it aint broke dont fix it .

Apparently you must not have realized the problem when you picked up the bow? :dunno:
I agree with others who said you should ask them to fix the problem. The owner of the place may not even know the problem exists, I would call the owner and ask if they will fix the problem. :twocents:

i just got back from rockcreek i was very impressed with the service nice guy and good work i havent had a string from him yet but have heard lots of good things :tup:

So my husband called Bobs, and explained the problems, We were told they made the strings, now they do not make the strings there. The man was not helpful, and I can tell you my husband is not a in your face type of guy. Very polite and talks never yells, So this may just said well maybe we can do something. HUMM He explained that he doesn't have 1/2 in to give on the D loop he tried it but his set point is all wrong. So I
think we will go to Lucky Shot Archery today and see what they can do. Learned a lesson. Wish we had a bow press for the new bows but ours doesn't work for these bows.
Just a bummer when you have a bow shooting great, quiet and works well and have it changed because a company doesn't want to listen or do good work.
thanks for all your imput.
Elk season can't come soon enough I am ready!!
