Hard-core has the best selection of bows and arrows. They are knowledgeable of their products and help you understand all the functions of bows. Highly recommend.

Ownership's customer service skills are lacking, especially towards people learning or wanting to get into the sport. Very condescending. It has not improved in the last few years despite the claims of "new ownership", or in this case nepotism passed from one owner to their next of kin. Then again getting my hopes up from a previous owner who is suspected to be a former Hell's Angel member is kind of foolish on my part. 0/5

Hey I came into the store yesterday to purchase a peep and have it installed on my new pse carbon levitate, I just wanted to share my experience of being in the store. The older gentleman who worked on my bow was kind and welcoming however the owner Ken was very abrupt when asked questions was almost dismissive about brands products and the errors made by his bow tech on my bow and my wife’s bow last visit . Just a gentle reminder customers are Life blood of any small business. I have been self employed over 15 years and do everything I can to make people feel welcome in my establishment. A cheerful hello and “do you have any questions or problems with your equipment I can help with?” Would go along way.Especially considering the errors with our equipment were created here, I said I can pay to have it fixed if need be, only to be met with “ oh your gunna pay for it that’s for sure”.(Recommendations)-Do good work-Guarantee that workAnd make up for it when you fall short.Otherwise people will go elsewhere

Went into this shop with very little knowledge of bows. They were extremely helpful and knowledgeable. Ended up buying the Bowtech Amplify. I have a bad shoulder, I'm right handed but left eye dominant and they took that into account when picking out and setting up the bow as well as giving me tips when showing me how to shoot properly! I will definitely be back for more business!

The staff were knowledgeable and helpful and friendly. They helped us with all our bow and crossbow questions, and helped us test out some bows for the kids.Very exciting.I highly recommend them before making any archery purchase .Great archery team.

Bought a compound bow from here and after a month it had multiple defects. Called up the store and they said they couldn’t do anything for me about it. Was new to archery as well and the owner made my draw length 1.5inch too long for me and didn’t care to notice when I was shooting. Seemed rushed to get me out of the store with my stuff. It’s unfortunate this is the only pro shop in the interior. When picking out a bow I asked for some options and he just grabbed me one and said do this one, didn’t care to explain why even when I asked just said do this one. Never gonna buy anything from here again.

I have bought 3 compound bows from Hardcore Archery over a 5 year time. Each and every time my Bow, sights and rests have been leveled/tuned perfectly and with great care and attention. Chuck is a master and his experience you wont find anywhere else. Ken the owner puts 110% effort in wanting you to experience archery and grow into the sport with the right set up and accessories. Barry is great for stories and interests in Traditional archery.

The guys were awesome to deal with. Very knowledgeable, took the time to set me up with the bow to suit me then got the hour 1 on 1 lesson to learn how to properly use it. Highly recommend shopping here.

I was super happy with the service I received! Very hopeful and knowledgeable. Barry took the time to answer all my questions and explain everything to me. As a Newbie and a woman I felt very comfortable asking whatever questions I needed and no intimidation orjudgment. Chuck was also lovely to dealwith. Hardcore was recommended to me by a few women. I'm glad I drove the 2 1/2 hours to get my 1st bow from these awsome gentleman!

Very disappointing customer service. Had been in the shop several times, as I prefer to support local businesses. The service I received was not friendly both times, and unfortunately would not recommend them. Was hoping to build an ongoing customer relationship in order to get in to Archery. Will have to make my purchases elsewhere.Update (October 2022)Archery lanes are now permanently closed to the public for drop-in use.Very disappointing.Found the new owner to be “pushy” when it comes to purchasing new products.Definitely will not return.

The new ownership was a good choice. The "new Ken" is a welcoming and polite shop owner. He will make sure you are taken care of and he will do it respectfully. I am glad this bow shop is able to pick up new customers and will hopefully grow more now that some of the old issues have been solved, such as having a "new Ken" run the place. Also, Barry is still there; he is a gem.
