This is not a paid advertisement:::

Two Bears Archery is in Springfield. They can do about anything you want and areVERY customer friendly. Fair prices too!

They have a very nice 20 yard indoor rangeand have shooting leagues throughout the year.

Good luck.

Hmm.. it doesn't look like Two Bears sell the bow I'm looking for.

Anybody here ever do business with Pekin Bass and Bow?

When you're back up here go see Pete at GAT Guns. He'll take care of you.

You are in Bloomington now? I don't know what brands they have, but Smileys down on Ireland Grove on the south side of town.

I know Bachs Outdoors used to have bowtech. They used to be in Pontiac, but I believe they moved to Cornell. Might be 40 miles away.

According to Lady Forge...and they do have bow tech according to one of her posts.

Blue Ridge Backwwods #(217)762-3123, 1410 N. Market, Monticello Illinois.
Hope that helps.

Thanks ya'll! (practicing my downstater speak)

IL Bow Man... yup,Didn't you feel a disturbance inthe force when I moved? I'm actually in a dinkytown called Stanford.

Justin, I know Pete would set me up.. but I was hoping for a place closer than 150 miles away. (sooner or later I'm not going to be commuting back and forth.... I hope)

I think I'm going to go check out Lady Forge'sBlue RidgeBackwoods.
