Archery Shop

Post by Rem700 » Tue Oct 24, 2023 1:45 pm

Looking for an actual archery shop with a bow tech! I need my bow re-strung as well as to talk with a knowledgeable person about my set up.

I may head to Corydon and go to Gun World and Archery shop as i have heard good things about them, but somewhere closer would be preferable (Louisville area).

Any ideas?

I thought they closed when the gun shop closed.

I know the Ops Supply out here in Simpsonville has an archery range now, may call and ask if they have a bow tech.

Well Ky gun co has an archery shop with a bow tech on site. He was not able to re-string my bow on such short notice because he would have to order strings. But they had a nice Matthews bow used that he is now setting up for me. Pick it up tomorrow. So good experience so far and glad I didn’t have drive to Indiana.
