Were going to get my 12 yo a compound for Christmas. I know very little about archery and don't want to just get something.
Is Cabela's, Sportsman's Warehouse, or North 40 good places, or would n independent shop be better?
-
I would go to Black Sheep in Couer D Alene.
They have always been helpful for us
-
Recommended shops.....not any more :'(

Does anyone have the low down on this one?

Camo'd Arrow. It is south of Colville, which is a bit of a ways from Spokane.
You can PM me (and OP, I suppose) if you don't want to air here. Sorry to OP if this is a thread jack. Let me know and I will remove it to a new thread.

Colville is a little far for me to travel, but if the info helps others I’m good with it.

Lady Red at Camo'd arrow is great! a bit of a drive, but she's wonderful. If you're looking for a super adjustable bow, North 40 (on hwy 2) has lots of bows, as do both Sportsman's Warehouse locations. Both have youth bows in stock. Not sure if Lady Red does.
-
She does. I stopped in today. Super nice and helpful. Appears to be a Hoyt shop and she gave me a run down on the Hoyt adjustable youth bow, Fireshot, I think it was for my boy.
We'll be in again after the first of the year to begin getting him set up.

:yeah: I'm not a Spokane or CDA local, but we bought my wife's bow at black sheep about 3 years ago and they were awesome.

I have had great service and work at Spokane Valley Archery.

She used to be on the Hoyt Shooting Team......

Since Whitetail plus closed in Deer park, I have reverted back to Spokane Valley Archery. The new techs they have in the shop have improved the culture immensely and was impressed with the work they did for me last spring. I will be going back. I used to be one of the naysayers on this shop, so it took a great deal of swallowing of pride to not only go back, but to give a positive recommendation.
-
The tech at the sportsmen’s warehouse in Spokane valley is pretty good he used to work at the black sheep.... otherwise I’d go to black sheep the tech is pretty good at his job possibly a bit arrogant but they do a pretty good job and have good deals on bows.
-
Bought a Diamondback Infinate Edge today from SVA.
Wife and I were greeted right as we came in the door and the young guy that helped us was very nice and helpful. We’ll see how they are when we go back for tuning and the included lesson.

Maybe, just maybe I'll swing back there someday then....

I'm hearing good things about the tech (older gent) at Sportsman warehouse on north Division, I did talk with him and he knows bows!
I had a good experience with Spokane valley archery, young man there spent a lot of time with me and I rewarded him with a large purchase :chuckle:
I reccomend you go off peak hours where they can spend time. If there's a bunch of other dudes standing around just walk out.
-
I’ll be in the market for a new bow in the next few months, and live a few miles from SVA. The positive reviews are nice but I’m not sure I’m ready to go back in there even still after the last times I went years ago....
I’ll be going to see lady red at camod arrrow for sure and probably north40 on Newport hiway. Still undecided on bow brand but want to try lots of them.
-
If you only live a few miles from SVA I'd reconsider, it's a long ways to the other side of Chewelah.
unless you are your own bowtech then just mail order one :twocents:

I just need a place to try and buy them. I can handle all the set up and Maintenance myself.

Don’t want to threadjack but have it narrowed down to a handful I think.

:) lets remember its eastern wa and a nice hour or so traveling 45 miles through wheat fields is therapy, not like 45 minutes over 10 miles on I-5.

I do enjoy a nice drive through God’s country now and then

Problem with SVA wasn’t the techs ...
I’d look into black sheep in CDA. They have insane amount of bows and brands and have heard they are good at bow set up from a few people .
-
I have always had good luck with SVA. Years ago they helped me out with some issues with my Hoyt and I didn’t even buy it from them. Drove up from Tri Cities and they took their time with me. I will be buying my next bow from them this Spring
-
Black sheep seemed pretty good the one time I was in there.. red at camo’d arrow about a mile north of Chewelah has been good to us. She seen my sons homemade bow and arrow (he was like 5) and gave him some youth arrows :tup: and she just had to take his picture. :tup:
-
I've had two kids through there, she's very good with kids
