Bow work... Pro Shop or do your own?

Just wondering if you do your own bow work or if you take your bow to a local pro shop?

I do what I can on my own but usually just take it to the bow shop

I take mine to my local bow shop

Little of both.

Pro shop.

If it need a press I go to a local shop.

I do my own. I just don't trust anybody else tunning my bow.

Like a lot of others have said... I do what I can on my own, but the pro shop does the work when I cant.

I do my on until I need a press then I go to the shop.

I have done all of my own. Bought my very first bow in January of this year, set everything up on it... have installed everything on it.

Figured I could either spend a couple hundred bucks at the shop, getting them to put it together, setting it up and tuning it and learn nothing about the bow.... or I could buy the tools myself and not have to rely on some guy at the shop to fix it for me.

Has worked out well I guess as I am the newest guy in my little group of bowhunting friends... but they all call me when they need a peep tied in, some serving done... you know, basic stuff that every archer should know how to do.

I do all my own work mainly because my local shop is full of A-holes that belittle everybody that walks in (unless you got your bow from them)
and they are way over priced aswell.

I work on bows on the side & pastor a church full time. Check out my site & our links we have a string & tune shop, a full archery pro shop & a film dipping shop all under one roof.

I also do 90 % 0f my own just conveient

I do all of my tuning myself along with the tuning for my wife and hunting partner also. The only time my bow goes to an shop is when the strings need to be changed as I do not have an press yet.
