Chicago Bow Shop?

By

I know this post is a long shot, but figured I’d give it a try since Bow Shops in Chicago seem to resemble politics here in this city. Tell ya what ya want to hear but perform like shit.

I got a $1100 dollar Hoyt Nitrux from ‘glissons archery shop’ in Plainfield Illinois a few years back. NEVER GO HERE! I won’t even go into it, just look for some good reviews on his site before going in!

That being said, that was not the first shop that dicked me around. Yes I’m newer to archery, yes I picked it up quickly and skillfully. But there has been several shops that want my money, want to do a quick shit job, want to give failing advice so I bring back that money to them time and time again. How are you going to be in this sport, with limited Archery Shops and not try to keep customers around?!

Fox Valley archery has been my best bet. Before I get this thing restrung, does anyone have a preferred shop in Chicagoland area? I want one shop to go to, one trusted team, who actually cares and who actually has the skills proven.

Happy Holidays!

Shibuya vs Axcel vs other top end sights?

By
So my budget has increased and i decided i'm going for a top-level sight for the target style recurve i'm building. It seems that Shibuya and Axcel are the top end, so for anyone who has experience with either one of them, or preferably both, could you tell me the differences, pros and cons, and which one is the best value? i'm planning on buying the most expensive, so the Axcel Achieve XP - Recurve or the Shibuya Ultima RC PRO Carbon Sight . If there's any other top end sights you think are better, let me know. I want this to be the first and last sight that i ever buy, and price doesn't really matter. Another question, on the Shibuya there's an option for "Single mount" and "Double mount." What do those mean? And lastly, is the sight aperture on either of the sights suitable, or is there better after-market apertures that are better? I'm sort of thinking that is something I should be buying from my local shop so i can actually te...

My thoughts on the Sanlida X10 Kit

By
Full disclosure: Sanlida reached out to me about being an "influencer." Their model, at least the one offered to me, was not something I was comfortable with. That being said, I still shoot their limbs and have a high opinion of the value of their products. The Sanlida kit has been getting a lot of buzz since Jake Kaminski started reviewing it, and with good reason. It's a relatively affordable, relatively complete setup. But is it a good value? I think it's the best "kit" available. If you don't want to pick and choose the accessories you want, it's hard to beat. But I'm not convinced it's the best use of $1000 for recurve archery. Limbs: I do absolutely recommend these limbs. At $249, I think the Miracle X10 limbs are one of the best values on the market. They honestly shot nearly as well as $600 limbs. The pair I have do not have the QC issues that Jake's did, so I definitely got lucky. Many of the alternatives in this price po...

PSE Oryx Longbow

By
Anyone have any reviews or experience with this puppy? I can't find it in any retailers (possibly a bad sign already?). I'm considering picking this up as it's cheap ($150 CAD) and seems like a decent beginner bow. I'm very new to this hobby/sport. Some facts I know about the bow: 40lb draw weight Right Handed De-strung when not in use Seems like a good deal to me for a beginner...any thoughts, archery world??
