Using bow shops in La Plata County

A pro shop sells and services bows, presses and tunes, cuts and builds arrows, sets nocking points and rests, and usually has a range for sighting in. Many also handle crossbow service and string replacement.

What to ask before you commit

  • Do you service my bow brand, and do you stock strings for it?
  • What does a full tune and paper-tune session cost?
  • Can you build and spine-match arrows to my setup?
  • Is the indoor range walk-in or by appointment?
  • How long is the wait for a string and cable replacement?

What it usually costs

Tunes and string installs are typically modest shop-labor charges; arrow builds are priced per dozen plus components. Expect longer waits and less flexible scheduling in the weeks right before opening day.

Timing matters

Get strings replaced and your bow tuned in the off-season. Shops back up badly in the last three weeks before the opener.
