What visitors say
Boorman Archery is a family-run pro shop in New Westminster that sells and services compound, recurve and traditional bows and runs archery lessons. It has close to 170 reviews, almost all of them five stars.
Customers talk about the depth of knowledge on offer. Several describe staff tuning compound bows, helping with recurves, building bows from parts while explaining each step, and even making custom-coloured strings. One archer who came in for a last-minute appointment was in and out quickly with new arrows despite the shop being busy.
The lessons are a big draw. A number of reviewers took beginner group courses and went on to buy their own bows, saying the enthusiasm of the staff got them hooked. Experienced archers also drop by to talk gear and pick up tips, and the shop serves everyone from Olympic-style recurve shooters to compound archers.
Negative reviews are very rare. It's a small shop that gets busy, so booking an appointment for tuning or building work is a sensible idea.
