Title: General supplies - where do you buy?
Post by: Tom Anderson on September 03, 2008, 03:54:00 PM
Other than 3 Rivers, Kustom King, and Lancaster, where else do you buy your archery supplies?

I find half of what I need in 3 Rivers, another 10% here, the rest somewhere else.  I'd like to find someone that carries it all!

I pretty much use Kustom King or a small local trad shop for all my archery related supplies.  For clothes and boots or anything else I may need I shop at Cabela's, Gander Mountain, or a local store called Jay's.

The Nocking Point and Braveheart Archery.

If you're looking for something that you don't see, give Mike @ the Nocking Point a phone call, he's usually got it laying around somewhere....

"The Nocking Point" is an excellent source. Good service and good people who support traditional archery.  :thumbsup:

I use local folks for the most part, but probably the bulk of my archery purchases comes from OSH

The Footed Shaft usually has what I need by way of archery supplies.  I try to spread my business around a little.  Also buy from 3R, Custom King and the Nocking Point, particularly when they're all at the Compton gathering in Michigan.

The Nocking Point for 99% of what I need. Mike comes to all our UBM events, plus he is as good as they get.

Mikes POC shafts are the BEST I've ever bought.

Great items, even better prices.

One Line Here or elsewhere! The archery shops in my area way over priced! can you imagine $150.00 markup  on a youth bow that should cost $200.00 and so on! MIKE

Me and my Dad use The Nocking Point, Raptor Archery, and Sipsey River for 90% of are purchases, and Cabela's for other misc stuff that we cannot get from the above.

I'm all for that.  I just recently ordered from one of the "big guys" and had to pay $8.95 shipping for a glove, a bowstring, and some nocks.  I had to return the glove because it didn't fit and it only cost me $1.57 plus 30 cents for the envelope.  Hmmmm...

They don't have a ton of traditional archery stuff, but I've found some good deals at  www.bowhunterssuperstore.com (http://www.bowhunterssuperstore.com)

I found they had a great deal on an arrow saw and Carbon Express shafts. I've had great service from them as well. They email me $5 off coupons every month, so that makes shipping about $2.

I've also used many of the sponsors here as well.
