I bought a bow back in 2001 when I was in school at AU and bow hunted for several years. After I graduated, bowhunting became less and less frequent for me, to the point that I haven't been since 2010 and my bow has been sitting up unused.

I've got the desire to give it another shot. What knowledgeable shops are close to Bham that I can go to and have my bow looked at, re-strung, and tuned? I really don't like going to Marks, only as a last resort. I am not looking to spend a bunch of money, but I do want to get everything ready to go again. Any comment about Grabow Outdoors?

Thanks

Grabow's or Nichols in pelham, both are just fine. If you go to nichol's, get buddy to look at it. I wouldn't let the others mess with it.

Heard lots of good things about Grabows and Nichols. I wouldnt hesitate to let either one work on mine.


With all your heart, you must trust the Lord and not your own judgement. Always let him lead you, and he will clear the road for you to follow. Proverbs 3:5-6

I have not dealt with grabows much, but they have done a good job from what I seen.

Nichols just set me up! I was in the same situation as you. Not crowded, small shop, decent range so you can shoot a bow or two. I was pleased with their knowledge and service.

I have never been to graybo
