I go to the pro shop. If they dont have it I head down to Gander. I like to support my local pro shop.

Shipping is figured in to these prices.

I have everything priced shipped TYD. I always tell guys support your local shop if you have one, but you would be surprised how many have to drive 30+ miles to any kind of shop and at the price of Gas that gets expensive. I hope to reach the ones that do not have the luxury of having a shop in their town.

I use a combination of the 3, but mostly internet. Even with shipping it is very often still much cheaper. Of the internet I buy mostly from 3 rivers archery, bass pro & bowhunterssuperstore. If I only need something little and can't wait to tack it on a big order I will do the pro shop thing. I'll also hit up the mega stores for consumables.

I shop the internet because it has everything I need and is cheaper than driving to the only proshop I would support. It would cost me 8 gals. of gas, roundtrip, to go to this proshop. Shipping is cheaper, if not free. I usually wait until I need to order a lot of stuff and that way, if there is shipping, the cost gets "spread out" over the items. Lately for a number of things I amchecking MeanV2 because, as he said, shipping is priced in and even then his prices are cheaper than everyone else.
