RE: I'm taking a poll..All replies welcome...
Flip side of that from a consumer. Bowtech is in a shop not 15 miles from my house. However, I live in a small town, have a job that relies on the residents and don't want everyone judging that I make "too much money" because I bought a $750 bow, and take their business elsewhere. People love to gossip, and I don't want to add fuel to the fire, no matter how underserved.
If I were to ever want a bowtech, I would be forced to travel a good distance away where I'm not known. If it were available over the net, and I bought it, and the local shop got a cut of the sale because I reside in their protected territory, and all they had to do was go to the mail box and pick up a check, I can't see them complaining. Everyone wins...
