Where are the Country's best trad-only shops?
« on: December 16, 2009, 08:40:00 AM »
My wife & I travel occasionally and it would be nice to know where the trad shops around the U.S. are located.  We have a fine one in the Denver area, Rocky Mtn Specialty Gear, actually about 2 1/2 hours from where I live. Tom is great to deal with and it's always nice to try different bows, pick up a few items, etc.

 Let's hear it, where are the trad shops?  :campfire:

3 rivers and the footed shaft are about the only 2 I ever buy from.

I guess I’m lucky living in NE Indiana. I have three of the best places to shop at for my disease. Kustom King is less than an hour away. Lost Nation is 25 minutes and 3Rivers is just one mile down the road from where I work. Even though 3Rivers is more like a warehouse they always let me wander around and pick my own stuff, talk to me and let me shoot anything they have in stock.

I vote for the Nocking Point, I have been to Three Rivers and its large with tons of stuff, but you feel like a life long friend when you walk into the Nocking Point.

Jerald with Archers Advantage in Little Rock Arkansas.  Dont think you will find a larger selection of Bob Lee or Roy Hall bows in stock.  He has tons of others and used bows too.

I'll second The Nocking Point...Mike and Brenda are top notch. Plus it is close enough to KC that you can go and wander through Cabela's.

If you head out West there is Raptor Archery in Hood River, OR.

If you're ever near Butler, PA check out Allegheny Archers.  They have a huge selection of trad bows and accessories, plus a great inside 3d range.

I have not seen Ted on here for a while but, like Chris stated, his shop Raptor Archery in Hood River, Oregon would be a good place to stop by.

Ted is a sponsor.   http://www.raptorstore.com/store/

I'd vote for Ted if you are in the Northwest, Mike Yance/Pine Hollow if in Arkansas, Mark Horne/ if in North Texas, Bear Foot Traditions/Iowa, and I know I'm forgetting at least a dozen more. I'll think on it. CK

Another vote for Mike and Brenda at The Nocking Point...  :thumbsup:  

The fact that I live just south of them is a BIG plus too...  :D

1.  Raptor Archery, Hood River, OR
2.  Wildcat Canyon Archery (I think that is the name of the shop), Durango CO

I've been to others, but those are my favorites so far.

I agree.  I really have had no bad dealings with any of them and have purchased from 3R, KK, LN, and Mike at The Nocking Point.  All seem to take the time to talk to you if you call in, which is nice in this day and age.
