Title: tri cities sportsmans wharehouse
Post by: syoungs on October 24, 2013, 07:43:56 PM: I just recently bought a Fred bear compound from a biddy of mine as a way to break back into archery, I needed help with my draw length, and needed to get a new draw module to fit my bow.
Went to sportsmans totally ready to drop 20-30$ on one as that's what I've seen them for online.

Sportsmans measured my draw, found me a new module, and sent me out the door for 0$ outts pocket! Not what I expected as I didnt buy the bow there :tup:

Needless to say I'll be going back this weekend for new arrows, a new target and other "must haves".

It seems like there is knowlegeable folks in all the departments ive dealt with, has been a good experience every time ive been there, just was a great experience today!

my only gripe with them is the lack of big and tall clothing, but that is everywhere, not just at sportsmans!

Like you I wish they did have a larger selection of the big and tall hunting clothes. How is shooting coming along for you? Have u ever shot the course out behind knights of colombus

Post by: syoungs on October 25, 2013, 08:52:22 PM: I actually prefer sportsmans over the Yakima cabelas.

I haven't shot much bow guy, I went to that course with my dad about 20 years ago, if I understand it right, the front part is open to the public.
I'm going to get the sight adjusted in the morning, if I get it dialed in I may go check it out.

I know its not a fancy bow, but I'm impressed with it so far, it was cheap to get into, and I was able to throw 4 arrows within a palm sized area at 25 yards after not shooting for 17-18 years or so. Few weeks and I'll get back in the hang of things :tup:

I have only been on the lower once and I really liked it for what we have here in the tri cities. Good grouping you'll be set for late season if u go. I think I may sneak out there in the morning to fling a couple need to start shooting I have a swakane doe tag coming up.

That's what happens when clothes are made out of the US. How big do you think an XL is in China? :chuckle:
