Yup. Another thing is the lack of innovation on the part of the bow companies combined with the state of the economy. Used to be, guys would upgrade bows every year or two, which also meant new arrows and components. A lot of shops operated on those relatively decent margins. Now that technology has plateaued, its one bow every 5 years or even longer. So I’d guess a 50% cut to sales, at a minimum.
