I sure don't! Any suggestions? (Don't say d.i.c.k's because that place is crap for archery)

He is just south on Indy. Don Eberman. I drive an hour plus just to use him. He is a Mathews dealer. He is very nice and knows his stuff. Last time I talked to hime before season in August he was selling 4 new bows per day.

Not exactly Indianapolis but I go down to Greenwood to The Outdoorsman. It's about 20min south of Indy. I live on the SE side of Indy.

I have had very good luck with: GIRT'S Archery in Anderson, IN. They know their business and you avoid all the BS so many of these shops seem tospecialize in!

I went there on saturday and wasn't that impressed. They have a pretty sweet archery range that is for sure but the pro shop didn't seem very good. That and who ever was running it at the time came across as a little punk. On a side note when I was there A guy checked an 11 point buck that field dressed at 244 lbs. It was a brute. I also was looking at pictures of bucks checked there last year and came across an idiot that took a picture of himself with his buck in the bed of his truck surrounded by loose corn that had more than likely been used to bait and kill said buck.

If it's they young kid you're talking about, he is kinda of a punk. Most every time I've been there this year I've worked with Ron. Seems to be ok. I've never been anywhere where the staff isn't full of themselves.
