    As Gut posted, I tagged along with him on the trip to Schaffer’s with my son Isaac. It’s been a few years since I’d been in there, and it was busy!

    It’s also been a few years since I’d been fitted for a bow, and both Jason and John were willing to do just about anything to get it done right. Over a period of about two hours Pat (gutone4me) and I shot three different bows, in several models/configurations, and Jason switched out a cam for me twice to get my draw length a little more dialed in. We shot his personal bow, and he stopped what he was doing to setup a Reezen 7.0 and put a string loop on it……all so I could compare it to the Reezen 6.5 I’d been shooting previously.

    Admittedly, I was a salesperson’s worst nightmare. A tire-kicker for all tire-kickers. They didn’t mind a bit, even when they were swamped and there were lines.

    I mentioned IDO in regards to Brian Peterson’s name, and John remembered him and the bow he got.

    Overall, I was impressed again with how they do business. Felt like we were shopping and buying bows from a hunting buddy.

    That is one thing I have always noticed from In-Depth Outdoors. Their Site Sponsors are always top notch, especially when it comes to Cusotmer Service. Schaffers certainly seems to fit that bill well.

    Very happy to hear that all of you are experiencing positive results from Schaffers. I bought a Mathews Legacy from John Schaffer back in 2002 and their customer service back then was excellent – just like it is now – 7 years later! That’s the number one reason why they are one of the top bow dealers in the country!
