Probably wont sell elite as they probably want to get paid up front(I'm guessing that would be a good idea). No Hoyt, no Mathews, no PSE, no Bowtech likely means no business

Man, when you've relegated to selling Strother and Athens as your main show at the shop, you've got trouble.
Edmonton could use an Elite dealer though, I wonder why he didn't get that one set up?

I think you misread....he stated TB is NOT carrying Hoyt....

I think SPAL's problem (if i recall correctly) is that Hoyt apparently wanted to deal direct and for some reason Dallas didn't. I honestly don't know what all that means, but that was what he personally told me.

I'm from up north, bought my bow a few years ago at SPAL's and had a great experience. My wife and I were looking for a place to buy her a bow so we googled SPAL yesterday and it took us to the old address, locked up tight, no sign they moved. Ended up driving across the city to Trophy Book and dropping $900 there. If he's still open he's a joke. Change your website, put up a sign, make an effort. Not a huge deal but I won't forget that he wasted my time.

Really Hoyt wanted to deal direct and SPAL did not want to? That's weird I wonder if Bowtech, Mathews and PSE all wanted to as well ? Lol

Wolverine in red deer was fantastic to deal with. Super friendly and made buying 2 new carbon elements for my cousin and myself an enjoyable experience. Highly recommended. Would gladly drive there from edmonton for that kind of customer service

I can almost guarantee no more hoyt because of the Bowtech Insanity. He was sponsored by Hoyt but bought an insanity and his hoyts sat on a shelf. He said the Bowtech was so good he couldn't pick up a hoyt anymore. He knew there was gonna be repercussions.

X2 that is hilarious, I'm fairly confident he's a pathological liar so maybe he actually believes that but my guess is he's trying to convince himself he didn't **** away his meal ticket(Hoyt dealership)

The Hoyt line was pulled from him by the distributor. He led people to believe he could still get them when he couldn't.he nice no stock , no parts. Trophy book will never be a Hoyt dealer because Hoyt uses a Canadian distributor and that distributor is very aware that Richard from Tb also owns Maple Leaf Distributors( Matthews distribution rights)
If I had to guess , Dallas has spent more than he's made IMHO .
I go o Kevin at Koiak Lake in Barrhead. He shoots Hoyt himself. I have bought my last 2 Hoyt's from him.
