  1. Sorry guys, cut and paste from another site. Had to get out the door for my sonson varsity football game tonite. Yeah... had the right wind to hunt one of our properties and things happened just as you hope they would. Got him to stop in the 25 yard lane broadside. Watched the nocturnal fly in slow mow and hit right behind the shoulder or so I thought. Found the arrow and no blood. 6.5 Inches of arrow broken off. Went back the next am and nothing. Shoulder shot..... disappointing. Gotta shoot my bow again Saturday to double check my ranges. Here's a buck I scored on 2 years ago. Haven't got him scored yet. 134 on my tape. Hopefully the piebald makes it through another season on our lease.
  2. I want to wish everyone luck this weekend, but I had to put a up rant regarding the services that I received at Creekwood Archery. I took my Hoyt up there back in early August for a tune up and new string. Total cost at $163. Fair price after talking with close friends. Have shot the bow probably 4-5 times per week since then in preparation for this season. As I stated in an earlier post, I shot a deer on Sunday pm and didn't recover. So naturally, i got the bow out and started shooting Monday after work. 6 arrows, dead on a 25 yards. Shoot Tuesday with the same results. Grab the bow Wednesday after work and after shooting 2 arrows i got to set my release and the serving on the cable has let go. I call the pro shop and he tells me to bring in. So i take it Thursday after work and he said he can have it done by Friday pm. He SAYS he will reduce the price of setup and only charge me $25 for that! Okay...... Two months on a new string and you indicate that your going to charge me to make a repair on a new material YOU provided and YOU installed. So I stop by today after work to pick it up and shoot it, which needed a little adjustment as he had to reset the loop after retying a new serving. So I go to pay and he tells me that its going to be $53!!!!! to correct a defective product that he provided and installed. When he indicated the total to me I asked "have you had problems with this happening before on these strings?" His response "We didn't MAKE the string." Oh, i neglected to mention that when i went to pick the bow up in August, my peep site was actually installed UPSIDE down...... Sorry everyone, i just had to vent and voice my extreme displeasure with this shop. I will be taking my business elsewhere!!!
