Wife and I are in Rochester, Mn for a Mayo visit tomorrow so we sought out a trad shop in the area and was sent to the Footed Shaft. What a great traditional archery shop. Terry Banitt and his wife made Chris and I feel right at home. Had a good visit, he gave me a couple of gifts and of course I found something to buy.
You just don,t find trad shops like his anymore.
You get over his way make sure you stop in.
We get up to the Cities once or twice a year. We normally detour through Rochester to stop at Terry's shop. Great service and lots of great stuff!
Terry and his wife are nice folks. Would like to visit the shop some day.
My wife is from the area, I have been in the shop many times.. good people.
I have never visited the shop, but have ordered bows and other stuff in the past and every transaction has been just fine.
Hope to stop on my way down to the Pope and Young sometime.
They were just at the Wisconsin Traditional Archers convention this past weekend in Madison, WI and of course I just had to buy a few items from them. They are always at a few trad shoots in the southern Wisconsin area during the summer.....pleasure to have them there.
They will most likely be at the P.B.S. Odd year gathering in July. And, they will most likely leave with some of my money as well. Great guy's.
I've been in that area many times and never realized that shop was near...phooey! Next time!
I've never been to the store. But I frequent their used bow section of their website and love it..
Terry is a straight up great guy that runs a fantastic shop. I get all my supplies from The Footed Shaft !!
They are great people we don't get to see them enough.
Jon call if you need anything
The Footed Shaft always comes to the Iowa Traditional Bowhunters Shoot over Memorial Day weekend. I always have a list of items to get from them! Great folks to deal with!!!
The store isn't too far from the Pope and Young museum. Visit both!
I've been there a few times over the years(before terry and recently) always a pleasure, and as already stated the pope and young Museum is not too far off just a little further south in chatfield ...makes for an enjoyable day :thumbsup:
Great Folks, La Mont was a great resource when I first got into trad archery, and the tradition continues.
:notworthy:
