Great customer service, I had Joey set me up with what I needed. I am new to the sport and didn’t know much about the equipment but after today I feel comfortable I know what I am doing. I would highly recommend anyone who is looking for a new bow or just want to try out their indoor range to go there. Thanks guys!

So I drove 190 miles one way to purchase a bow from The Bow Zone. I am new to archery and knew virtually nothing about it. I learned of the shop from one of the employees, Rosie, who is a close friend of mine. When we got there, I was a bit skeptical because there was excavation going on around the entire building, but as it turns out they’re doing an expansion project and increasing the size of the store and indoor range. Rosie introduced me to Joey who was going to help me pick out a bow. Joey was very helpful, informative, and went at my pace on my level. Joey showed me the bow that he thought would be the best fit for me and what I was looking for and then he took me to the range and let me try it out. But he didn’t stop there, while I was trying it out, he gave me several pointers and let me take my time until I felt comfortable and 100% sure of my purchase. I have to say that I was very impressed with the customer service that I received from Rosie and Joey(I did not work with any other employees though they all seemed nice, friendly, and knowledgeable.) The prices seemed fair and the shop was nice, set up with a good inventory of bows and accessories. I would definitely recommend any avid archery folks or those who want to get into archery go visit The Bow Zone and let them outfit you for all your archery needs. The experience is well worth the drive.

These guys are the absolute best! Extremely friendly and courteous service. I brought my bow in for some slight adjustments and an evaluation and they only charged me $ 5.00 plus the minimal $ 7.00 range fee. If you have any archery needs what so ever, this is the only place worth considering.

I’m glad I made the trip up to Spring to visit this place. When we walked in it looked fairly busy so I was sure we’d have to wait a while. Much to my surprise we were helped immediately and exclusively for 20 – 30 minutes fitting me with bows and equipment that matched my price range, answering terminology and shooting technique questions, and talking me out of a more expensive bow I had planned to buy. These guys are helpful, friendly, observant, knowledgeable, and the place was well staffed on a Saturday so that no customer was left to wander. Really great place. I’m going back this spring to buy my equipment from them.

I really wanted to love this place as it seems many other reviewers have, but my experience here was just not that great. Previously, my husband and I had been to another archery range where we had our first lesson and fell in love with archery, but the location was far for us, which prompted our venture into Bow Zone. Before going, I checked out their website and gave them a call to make sure we didn’t need reservations and could rent bows, and once we were given the affirmative, we went over. Walking in the door, we could see they were a bit busy and since we weren’t in a rush, we bided our time by wandering around and checking out the items for sale. When it was our turn, we said we would like to rent bows and shoot for a while in the range. The woman gave us a slightly sideways glance and asked if we were experienced. I told her that we weren’t experienced, per se, but we have had lessons previously. She told us that without having a lesson from THEIR shop she couldn’t rent us anything. She also mentioned that their only instructor was booked for a little while and gave us their card to inquire about openings in a couple weeks. At that, she shrugged her shoulders saying there was just nothing she could do for us. What a warm welcome. I’ll be honest, I was beyond frustrated. Why had no one mentioned this little bit of information on the website or on the phone? And if we’ve already had a lesson, why should it matter if it was with them or not? She essentially denied our business and sent us on our way. I don’t doubt that this place is very knowledgeable and prides themselves on safe practices(hence the generous 3 stars), but they are seriously lacking in other areas. Looks like we’ll just have to make the journey across town to go back to the original range where they are actually friendly and helpful to new faces.

We have been wanting to get into archery for a long time. We have researched bows online, done all the tests and measurements to make sure we have the right fit, even watched videos online. We scoured Houston for a decent shop, that not only was stocked but had warm welcoming people running it! There is nothing worse than walking into a shop for the first time and either being ignored or talked down to. The bow zone was none of those things! We walked in and they were completely stalked, and we were welcomed warmly. We were immediately helped and the staff was wonderful! Very knowledgeable and not once did they push us towards one particular bow, they actually encouraged us to try both recurve and compound to make sure we liked what we wanted. We got to test out our bows on the range before we bought them and the trainer was awesome! We didn’t take a lesson but she gave us just a few quick tips and my husband picked it up immediately and was shooting nearly the Bulls eye every time! A funny tidbit… As we were leaving there is a slight ramp outside the door that I didn’t notice and I fell, they actually came out to make sure I was ok instead of laughing or ignoring me. The man asked if I was alright and checked my bow to make sure it wasn’t damaged! This place is wonderful and we will most defiantly be back! The customers in the range were even welcoming and very nice! I really want to take a few lessons on perfecting my form and they even have layaway! I your looking for a good shop and don’t mind a drive to spring if your in the Houston area! Bow Zone is the best place! Yall are amazing and deserve all the wonderful reviews you have acquired hands down!

I have been to many archery dealers/ranges but this one by far was my favorite until the new owners came in. Now it has lost all of its charisma and knowledge because it was a quick owner trade. People here are sassy and don’t have the knowledge of a true now hunter. Please find someone were else to find your supplies and information!

If your on the fence about getting a bow. Or even don’t know much about them. Go here! They will answer ANY question you may have. Won’t over sell you something you don’t want and fit you for your perfect bow. Oh and they have very competitive prices on bows. And and large selection.

I read great things about BowZone on several archery forums — and they certainly lived up to the hype. These guys adjusted and tuned a used bow that I just acquired and set me up with some high quality arrows at a great price. There was no wait — they got right to work on it. I’m a novice at archery, but everyone was extremely helpful, including the other shooters visiting the range. They helped me dial in my sights and work on my technique. I’ll definitely be back to BowZone to shoot and buy new gear.

This is an Archery shop/indoor range for bow hunters. I really liked this place because I am left-handed and the owner is also left-handed so their is a bunch of left-handed accessories to choose from. I had bought a new bow from them, and the guy set up the entire bow for me including the arrow rest, sights, and vibration dampeners. The guy was real genuine with me and i felt like he wanted to make me happy. Through the whole process if i felt uncomfortable with anything he explained it to me and/or adjusted it to my needs. It may be a little far but is way worth it in the long run, because you know you are going to get quality service, plus the indoor range is nice during the summer months when its too hot to shoot outside.
