Hmmm, maybe I am wrong but tomorrow is Friday isn't it? I thought they were only open on Saturday to the public. I am probably wrong.  Or are they doing a special Black Friday thing?

Greg, yeah, they are usually closed to the public on fridays, but they are doing a special black friday thing.  Hours are 9 to 5 for the warehouse.

I sure miss going there...

My in-laws lived in Ft. Wayne for several years and I would make a trip up there regularly... Sure miss that since they moved to CO...

Fun trip...

Tradtusker, 3RA is in Indiana, North central. I'm about an hrs drive from there and thinking about a trip there today myself.

You got picks of your new bow Scott?

I've looked at the Great Plains Rio for a looong time. Did you get one?

I'm just starting out with traditional archery and had alot of questions.  3 Rivers was definitely the place for me to go.  The service was unbelievable and their selection of accessories and bows was awesome!!!
I wound up getting the Volcano - 58" @ 50#.
I researched it online and found it to be a great beginners recurve and I loved the looks of the one piece.  I'll get some pics up shortly.
I purchased Masters of the Barebow 1,2 and 3 also and am getting ready to watch them.  Mr. Karch gave me some really good shooting instructions while I was at 3 Rivers and am now working on my shot sequence.  I have to get down the push of the bow to the target, follow thru.
And also my release hand needs to be coming back straight.  I love shooting instinctively.  Can't wait to hunt this way!

Second that.  I just bought some Hammer small game heads from them.  Postage costs, packaging and speed of delivery was excellent.  Great shop!
