I hear ya, Im trying to get htere as well.

Please don't be impressed
But I am Mathews certified
I also stayed a a Holiday Inn Express last night

Mathews is a 2 day class
It is a good class and I learned a lot but I was pretty green when I opened.
The best thing that came out of taking the class is meeting Ole, he does know just about everything you could ever need to know about a Mathews (or other brands).
He has been a big help to me on a couple technical questions.

I get a kick out of techs or others that make it seem like working on a bow is some sort of "Black Magic"
It's not that big of a deal if you have an understanding of how things work.
Now I have to go stock up on chicken bones to have at the shop so I can roll them and "see" what needs to be done to make my customers bows shoot their best

The Bowtech course is $1,000 dollars I believe, and you get a bow at the end.

You make your own bow..

Atleast the Mathews guys who get certified don't have to go and re certify that often. Seeing as how Mathews hasn't changed much in the last 10 years
