I buy bows from this shop and I have never had a problem. I just bought a new Hoyt 2 months back. The shop is ran buy one guy and he can get whatever you need if he does' nt have it . His prices are good and his service is great. While you may know what you are doing the vast majority of people who come thru the shop don' t. String loops are for seasoned archers not 2 year experts. You got to put yourself in his place and realize that if someone gets hurt using a string loop it will go back to the store owner, one law suit like that will put a small shop out of buisness.
