$100!!??? LOL I almost spit up my water when I read that..........:D
It's WAY more than that even on a KID's bow it's much more than that. MAnufacturers actually make the least amount of money on a kid's bow because you still have many of the same materials and labor costs but with a much lower dealer cost. Top end bows have much more involved machining, larger raw materials etc etc. Thebottom linecost of making a compound bow is closer to dealer price than you might imagine......;) |

AND,dealer cost is closer to your cost than most can imagine.Especially if you are a lower level dealer.

The owner of the shop use told me he makes about $100 on a new bow. Says he makes most his money on the accessories.I know him quite well so I am sure he is being honest

My guess is more like 250-300

ORIGINAL: McKenzie Elk Hunter My guess is more like 250-300 You could be right. The thing is, I'm sure it is fairly different for each company. Oh well, a ballpark figure would be interesting to me! |
