I bought my bow from Danny at Outdoor Specialties... I can tell you that there aren't many people around as experienced/knowledgeable as he is with setting up a bow.
I'll just give you a quick story about my experience with Danny. From the time I got my bow, he was my only source for archery equipment as I gave all of my business to him as "my pro shop". That all changed when I received a free set of World's Best Strings from a friend of mine that was in business with the owner of the company when they first came out. It was a demo deal to promote the new strings. Of course I went to Danny to have them put on my bow and I was kind of treated less than expected for not buying the strings from him. I got the message that he didn't appreciate me bringing something not purchased at his shop for him to set up. While I acknowledge his skill, experience, and craftsmanship I didn't appreciate being treated that way. And just because I haven't been bowhunting for 40 years doesn't mean I don't know anything about bowhunting and what works best for me. Not ALL bows need to be set up exactly like Danny's bow.
Last year I made my first trip to Precision with a friend and I was very impressed. They do promote Bowtech and Mathews but they really don't care what kind of bow you shoot. They only seemed interested in helping out all archers and promoting the sport of bowhunting. When I need something now I drive right past Lake Charles and head for Bridge City.
