Title: PRO SHOP NEEDED (Central WA)
Post by: Call em in on July 01, 2016, 12:47:43 PM: Hey guys,

I'm looking to get some opinions on a good archery shop in Central WA. There are none where I live but I do make it to Wenatchee from time to time so possibly Hooked on Toys? I have a Mathews Z7 I would like to get restrung with Winners Choice stings and other general tuning stuff. I'm open to driving somewhere else to if the service would be better. I would love to go check out XXX Archery but 10 hours round trip is a bit much.

Thanks for any input.

May I ask why winners choice?

Because I think it is due for a new string and I want the best. Do you have another suggestion?

Post by: D-Rock425 on July 01, 2016, 01:10:46 PM: I think winners choice are fine stings still but not the best like they were before the company sold a few years back. I was a huge winner's choice fan before they sold I believe quality has gone away since the sale.

I didn't realize they were having quality control issues.....So which ones would you suggest instead?

Post by: demontang on July 04, 2016, 12:56:08 PM: Yeah I'd skip winners choice they are decent but not like they where. Bright strings 60x both do a good job. Where are you located at in central?

I wonder where we could find a local with experience in the area to start up a shop with some shooting lanes? Hmmm.

Title: Re: PRO SHOP NEEDED (Central WA)
Post by: demontang on July 21, 2016, 06:43:50 PM: It's a matter of if the shop would be supported. :twocents: the money to open a shop big enough for lanes is around but the locals won't support it. To easy to shoot in your yard or woods.

Post by: nontypical on January 03, 2017, 07:51:08 PM: I am also in central WA looking for a pro shop. I was hoping to find a shop I could also shoot at so if adjustment needs done can do it all at once. Iam seeing that probably isn't one. How about around cour d'Alene? It's a lot close than any where on the west side.
