[QUOTE="5.56×250, post: 1666623, member: 110162"] Just a heads up on the consensus on this thread. As tempting as it is to save money on a used bow, dont expect your local proshop to be around to let you use them for very long if you recommend that people buy off AT. They wont be around to let you shoot their equipment. It is s very tough business to make a living at. No one who owns an archery proshop does it to get rich. They do it for love of the sport, but they depend on customer loyalty to keep the doors open. As someone who ran an archery proshop in a bigger sporting goods mom and pop store, I have a pretty good bead on the price to run a shop. It was a struggle to keep the owner from shutting the archery part down, because it wasn't profitable enough to make it worth his while . Please support the people who give you the opportunity to shoot before you buy. If we dont , we will be buying this equipment based on pictures on the web. Its killing the sport. [/QUOTE]
