Looking for the best salesperson in Baton Rouge to work with in buying a new bow and getting it outfitted. I am new to bow hunting and I am willing to go in on a non-busy day (Monday?) in the morning in order to find someone willing to take the time to let me try out some bows, make a purchase, and not feel bad being a total noob. Bowies, Cabelas, Spillway??? Just need a contact name, possibly someone on the board who works in a bow dept. Thanks!

I would say a local shop like Bowie's or Spillway would be better than going to Cabela's or Bass Pro. I go in Spillway pretty regularly and the sales people at Spillway are really knowledgeable.

I would rather use a local shop if possible, but a good, patient, knowledgeable salesperson means the most.

I can't speak for Bowie's, but you won't be disappointed at Spillway. Spencer at Spillway really knows his stuff. I go to get my bow tuned up before every season at Spillway.

just what I needed to hear.
the last time I was in the bow department the only thing that kept me from buying the hoyt carbon spyder was the fact they weren't available for purchase yet.

Just picked up a 2015 Hoyt Nitrum 30 and man, what a sweet sweet setup. I am in awe of how nice and great shooting this bow is.

That's what I'm getting
Turbo or ZT 30? I was choosing between a Nitrum Turbo, Nitrum 30, Carbon Spyder Turbo & Carbon Spyder ZT 30. I pulled the Nitrum 30 back last and knew immediately that was the one. I MUCH prefered it over the Turbo cams. Harvest brown carbon limbs and orange accessories if anyone cares

If you don’t mind, What did you walk away spending? I want to try out the new Hoyts and thought about a used Carbon Element, but damn the Hoyt’s are expensive for a rookie! Shot a Bowtech Assasin a few years ago and loved it but had nothing post 2000 to compare it to, But it was a great price.
