Katniss Everdeen, Hawkeye, the Green Arrow, Merrida from Brave, even Ygritte from Game of Thrones… archery is certainly coming back into style in pop culture. I’m pursuing horseback archery, which requires a specific type of bow. 7 Meadows Archery is the sole North American distributor for Hungarian bowmaker István Tóth. The bows are made in the style of his nomadic ancesteors, the Huns and the Magyars. The showroom is by appointment, but Kim is really flexible and welcoming. They’d just returned from a convention, so the showroom was a bit chaotic, but Kim still knew what stock was available. She understood my physical requirements and suggested several bows. They have a short range target so you can test the bows. Kim answered all of my questions, was really friendly and chatty, asking about where I practice and how I got interested in it. It was really low-pressure too, which I appreciated. She wasn’t constantly trying to make the sale. They have a variety of styles of bows with all different weights and purposes listed on their website, which you can buy online. The benefit of going to the showroom is the ability to try them out. It really pushed the experience from 4 stars to 5. The products come with a warranty and they’re more than happy to take questions/concerns even after the warranty. Kim said that she’d rather I come back if I have any problems – even if the warranty is over, or doesn’t cover the type of problem. She expressed that she didn’t want customers to take the bows to someone who doesn’t know about this type of bows and make the problem worse. It’s not inexpensive, but archery equipment rarely is. You’ll be paying $ 300+ for a bow, but you can tell the quality in the craftsmanship just by looking at them.
