Anybody had experience with these guys? Their prices are very good. Thinking about ordering from them.

From what I've heard, you'd best stick with a tried and true vendor such as those that can be found on this forum.

I've used them several times in the past and had no problems...prices were good just one man's opinion.

Try Mike at The Nocking Point. Good guy with great service and good prices.

I had bad dealings with these guys. Poor communication, and took months to get what I ordered.

Nocking Point gets my "tip of the hat"

Used them many years ago, had no problems.

I wont say they are bad,they have been around for ever.I will say this, you wont get any pro's in the Traditonal archery world from them.The sponsors her deal only in trad,so they are pro's in the trad world of archery.You wont get bad advice and the wrong equipment from guys on here.Thats worth something to me.I suport the sponsors here ,i know because i am one.If we dont,we wont have any.

I've ordered from them several times in the past. They always had quick turnaround and mechandise as described. I guess you would say I am a happy customer.

Ordered stuff from them in the past,took forever to recieve my merchandise.Nockingpoint gets my business now,Quick and Mike is a great guy to deal with.He gives great tips and helps you out on what you need...................

I've used FS Discount arrows from time to time. I've never had a problem with any of my orders from them.

As for using sponsors on here, that's fine with me too since I've bought from Braveheart Archery many times. But, sometimes that's not feasible. As an example, "no" sponsor here on Trad Gang carries the Eclipse X7 2212 full length aluminum shafts and 2212 RPS inserts, which I build into arrows, so that forces me to get them from Bowhunters Superstore in Wellsville, Pennsylvania. This company has been supplying me my hard to find aluminum shaft sizes not normally used by bowhunters, for the last 30 or more years. The reason I shoot a 2212 is because Easton discontinued the 2113 shaft size I had used for many years so that forced me to adapt and I was lucky to find the 2212 size was a very good replacement.

In essence, when I buy my trad archery stuff, I spread the wealth around depending on who has what when I need or want it.

Nocking Point for me for many years.Picking up stuff from Mike tomorrow at a shoot in Okla

4dogs · April 30, 2011, 08:46:00 PM

Did once, didnt get what I ordered, turned into a bit of a mess that took a while to sort out.

bolong · April 30, 2011, 09:18:00 PM

I bought quite a bit of stuff from them back in the 70's and 80's. Never had a problem.

I can vouch for that - always a pleasure getting a new box from Mike :cool:

They have been around for along time, and I have order from them, no problem. And Night Wing is right, not all of the sponsors on here carry what you need.
