Default How to Find A Good Bow Technician

I have recently repicked up archery and I am loving every minute of it. My problem is thatI do not have much confidence in the shop where I bought my bow. I love the bow (Hoyt PowerTec) and my rest (Whisker Bisquit QS), but I worry about how it was all set up and tuned. The man who owns the shop just made a few measurements with a tape measure and then had me shoot a few arrows while he looked over my shoulder and declared my bow tuned! I have had another shop look at the bow to make sure that it was put together correctly and they assured me that it was - but I honestly did not feel like they gave it much attention.

So, here is my question - I read all of these great posts about technicians using the newest high tec gear to make sure that bows are tuned correctly and I want to know how to find one of those guys!!! I live in Denver, CO- any suggestions on how I find a good tech to work on my bow? I really want to make sure that I am giving myself every opportunity to shoot my best.

Best one can be found looking into a mirror.It's a life long pursuit and can't be accomplished as quickly as all that.
