Can I Buy My New Bowtech Bow from Hunter's Friend???

If you live a little off the beaten-path, and you do not have reasonable access to a local Bowtech dealership, we would be honored to serve as your Bowtech dealer.  Simply type your zip code into our dealer locator above.  If no local Bowtech Dealers exist within 30 miles (as the crow flies) of your location, you will qualify for mail-order purchase via our exclusive and  factory-authorized Bowtech in the Boonies program.  If you are fortunate enough to already have an authorized Bowtech Dealer in your area, our locator will provide you with contact information and driving directions, so you can visit and support your local shop. 

Why Aren't Bowtech Bows Sold at All Sporting Goods Retailers?

Bowtech Bows are a "protected" bow line, and are generally sold only via restricted dealer territories.  Like several of today's hottest bow brands, Bowtech bows are typically NOT sold by internet stores, mail-order houses, or discount chain stores.  Most often, protected bow lines are sold exclusively by a network of reputable local archery pro-shops who maintain specialized equipment and  personnel.  This ensures the best possible level of customer service with Bowtech brand bows and helps to make certain that Bowtech bows are properly setup, tuned, and performing-well in field.  That's something that's hard to accomplish if your products are being boxed-up and shipped by big mail-order houses, catalog stores, or e-merchants that don't specialize in archery equipment.

What is a "Dealer Territory" Anyway?

Each authorized local Bowtech dealer is solely responsible for serving a given geographical territory, usually within a 10-20 mile radius of their store (as the crow flies). To avoid territory infringement among competing dealers, an "in-shop only" sales format must be followed.  In most cases, you must physically walk-into a authorized Bowtech dealership to purchase a new Bowtech Bow.  And with a growing network of over 700 authorized Bowtech Dealers nationwide, many shooters now have reasonable access to a qualified Bowtech Dealer in their area.  However, the United States is a BIG place.  As you can see on the 2005 Bowtech Dealer Coverage Map (above), some areas have plenty of local dealerships, some areas do not.  Bowtech realizes that everyone isn't within reasonable driving distance of an authorized Bowtech dealership.  And since Bowtech doesn't want anyone to be denied the opportunity to shoot the world's best-performing compound bows, Hunter's Friend has been authorized to help "fill the gaps" and to offer our services to Bowtech customers in areas where local dealerships do not yet exist.


Is the Bowtech in the Boonies Program Exclusive to Hunter's Friend?

Yes.  Hunter's Friend LLC is the only Bowtech Dealership authorized to conduct mail-order sales on Bowtech products, via our Bowtech in the Boonies Program.  And we work hard to ensure that every Bowtech in the Boonies customer receives technical services equivalent to - or better than - what you would receive in a local specialty shop.  In fact, we too are a fully-equipped local archery pro-shop, serving our local area in Johnson Co., KY.  Though we do market products and services via our website, we are certainly NOT a corporate "big-box" store.  We maintain a full-time staff of qualified archery technicians.  And, in fact, the VAST majority of our annual sales are generated through our Ready-to-Hunt™ Bow Package program, where every bow system arrives professionally accessorized, setup, adjusted, group & paper-tuned, and meticulously prepared by our pro-shop staff.  And we're proud to continue the Bowtech in the Boonies partnership with Bowtech for 2007.

Should you have any additional questions regarding our Bowtech in the Boonies program, please email us or call 877-410-7811 to speak with one of our archery specialists.
