I recently purchased a bow from Mike at A&M and my experience was the same as NJgunners. He spent 2 hours with me, allowing me to test shoot different bows, he never pushed me one way or the other, but provided his unbiased opinion if solicited. I settled on the Z7 and put a deposit on it that day. I walked away feeling very good about my purchase and A&M. When it was ready, he added all the accessories for me and set aside 3 hours of his time to correct my form..I never knew how bad it really was until he corrected it. we fine tuned it, paper tuned it, and then he gave me 2 free passes to shoot on his range. Yes, he can be short, sometimes gruff, but he knows his stuff and I was a longtime patron of Wilderness Archery (when it was still around)and L&H and never received anything in the way of coaching or assistance. Like someone else here said, check your ego at the door, go with an open mind and you'll be pleasantly surprised at what you learn. Just my nickel FWIW. Oh forgot to mention, he re-fletched a half dozen arrows free of charge, and did not charge me twice for going a half hour over my range time...what he wants is a long term relationship and happy customers...as a businessman myself I can't fault him for that!
