Abolutely right!

One of the best things you can do is find a good pro shop in your area and build a good relationship with the people behind the counter. When you take your bow in for service, don' t just drop it off and leave, if they can get on it right away. Stand there and watch what the tech does, and how he does it. Ask a few questions along the way, but don' t be barrage the poor guy at every step. He' s a trying to make a living and doesn' t have time to relive the Spanish Inquisition.

In my opinion, the VERY best thing you can do is join an archery club and hang around with experienced shooters. You can learn more by accident just being around those folks than you ever will by reading books.
