RE: Delaware Proshops or Southeast PA
Since I work in Blue Bell, PA I swung by Middletown Archery near Media. The guy Jim at the shop said he has experience with them and will be glad to work on it. Out of convenience, I am am getting it done there.
I like the idea that I know another place to shoot as well. Maybe I can get there once a month for a hour. First impression was a bit skeptical but, we will see how it goes.
Here is what I wanted to happen when I walked in the shop.
Me: I need a new string and this bow has noot been tuned in years. Could use someone to look everything over and make sure it is perfect.
Response: Great, glad to do that for you. Here is what I am going to do. I'll put a new string on it, check tiller, check your rest, check X, Y, Z. They you come in and shoot it to verify that your happy.
Have not had that experience yet in a shop. I feel like there is not such thing as a bow tune-up...or everyone has their own idea of what a tune-up is. Ex. He was not going to look at my rest until I asked him to.
Also, he never once asked me how it shot, if I was happy with it, if he should be aware of anything etc. Overall, nice guy and I will let you know the entire experience when I am done. Maybe I should have told him I wanted arrows as well. So he knew there was more money in it for him?
Post this season, I will need some work done on my Proline.. I'll look down state if I get a chance as I would like to help a Delaware company out with business as well.
