Pro shop set up, i cant believe it
My sons best friend is 14,he is already a bowhunter and wants to try turkey hunting this year without the firearm. He just purchased a new Martin bow from a known bow shop, They had set it up for him with a WB. any way he had bought new arrows and was now wanting blazers put on them and asked if i would do it, naturally i said yes i would love to help him out. He brought the whole bow set up. I fletched his arrows and decided to check out his bow the shop had set up. would you believe center shot was a inch to the left and arrow square was 1/4" out [&:]The WB's black bristles were not on the bottom but to the side [&:]before it was all over, i got him tuned, fletched, took off double brass string nocks and put him double string nocks. The D loop was tied wrong so i fixed that. I had some extra string letches so i fixed him up with that. The shop had told him blazers DONT work well with WB yeah right,whats up with that?? He said the guy at the shop was a crotchaty OLD man, maby a fill in i guess, but it was obvious he knew nothing about setting up bows.

I know exactly what your talking about. That's why I became self proficient. There is one shop I'd let touch my bow and only ONE guy in the shop, the owner, NO OTHER SHOP as they are a joke. You would think that a shop owner would learn and teach it's employees as it reflects right back to the shop.

Good job Dan, sounds like you got the kid all setup and ready to go.
Had he just shot his bow straight from the shop and had a bad experience, he might not have continued with the bow. You may have just saved a future bow hunter.
With that kind service, they may not be around for long. You need to dig up Greg/MO's thread from last week and update it.

I'm telling you..... there is a market for a bowshop that is willing to teach customers how to work on their own equipment, and furnish the tools and teaching for the same.
Do you not agree?
