In addition to offering bows and archery accessories for sale, we offer a variety of archery-related services, including:
 

Bow Tuning & Repair
Repairs, tuning, and adjustments are services every archer will require on a regular basis; particularly for active shooters. Our skilled technicians are familiar with a wide variety of bow types and manufacturers and are able to identify and correct most issues.

String Making
In addition to repairing bows and arrow fletching, we offer string making. All services are performed in our in-house shop.

Arrow Fletching
As a special service for the serious competition archer, our technical department can 'blueprint' your new arrows so each one is identical to the next. In addition, we can "group-tune" your arrows on our "HooterShooter" shooting machine.

 
The "Hooter Shooter" is the ultimate tuning aid. After you've tuned your bow and arrows with this machine, you will have the confidence of knowing that every arrow you shoot is capable of going into the same hole!
 
 
Q: What is a Hooter Shooter and what can it do?

A: A machine that can shoot most bows with perfect form. So closely simulating an individual without the human variables that a person can learn to shoot like the machine with the same sight settings.

The machine shoots with such precision that it will shoot the same arrow into the same hole at 20 yards even on a poorly adjusted bow.

This precision causes any changes in the bow, variations in arrows and arrowrest, variation of release, changes of heel pressure, bow orientation, and draw length to be reflected by where the arrow hits.

The Hooter Shooter will shoot most 2 cam and single cam bows using most hand held releases or releases using a wrist strap. However, not the back tension type releases.

"If all your arrows won't use the same hole, then you know for sure it is not the shooter but the equipment that has a problem."

This machine is engineered to shoot a bow the way an archer should with adjustable high/low wrist, universal release holder, and unique grip which emulates the human hand. Of what value is it to an archer to know absolutely, if their equipment is the cause or their shooting is the cause for missed shots.

With the Hooter Shooter, you can offer your customer visual, undeniable proof that their bow is shooting an arrow in the same arrow hole repeatedly. Are all your arrows flying identically? Now you can test them with unerring accuracy. Is your bow tuned well enough to have broadheads shoot exactly like field tips? With the Hooter Shooter, you will have the tool you need to find out and tune your bow to accomplish the results you desire.

This precision makes it possible to see the effects of any adjustments that are made to the individuals equipment. The effects that can be seen are:
