I believe there is one in Deer Park that primarily carries PSE and one in Chewelah. Your other options are the box stores Cabelas/Wholesale Sports.

Post by: Hornseeker on September 15, 2010, 09:26:34 AM: Fred, I think you'll find it real hard to get good service as a traditional shooter... best thing to do is to "DIY"... if you have any questions or need help with anything, let me know...

Post by: Grizzly95 on September 15, 2010, 09:52:19 AM: Spokane Valley Archery, Mark is the owner; unless his son has taken the reigns. Mark was a traditional guy, he is very knowledgeable. Other than fuel it is always free to go and talk to him. They do classes and one on one instruction. I don't spend as much time out there as I used to, so not sure the way it runs now but give them a call and pick the brain a little.

Post by: bearpaw on September 20, 2010, 08:43:17 AM: The Camod Arrow just a couple miles north of Chewelah on Hwy 395 is very good. Red will set you up right and is reasonable too.

Tel: 509-935-6244

Post by: starr on September 20, 2010, 03:54:45 PM: I just got my bow last year and bought it at wholesale sports in the valley mall. They were helpful and didnt seem like they were out to gouge me. they have my vote.

Post by: 724wd on September 26, 2010, 10:01:05 AM: for trad gear, there's also a shop in CDA on 95 by the name of NW pony express. pretty much all trad gear and the fella there SEEMED pretty knowledgeable. other than that, Whitetail Plus or the Camo'd arrow would be great bets.

Post by: rotty33 on November 04, 2010, 12:29:31 PM: Spokane valley archery probably has the most knowledgable staff. They could probably work on their people skills a little though. Wholesale sports would be my second choice. Cabelas a distant third.
