Pray for NutterBuster

This is kinda what I have in mind. I don't plan on being the cheapest guy in town. I plan on being the guy who knows what he's doing, who will let you drink a beer out of his fridge while he's working on your stuff, who will travel to your camp/house if need be, all for a reasonable and mutually agreeable cost.

If I'm going to do it, I'm going to do it for enough that I feel justified putting 100% of my attention into it.

I think you’ve lost your Nutterbusting mind again. If I did it it would have to be by appointment only. I considered doing something similar with processing one time. I was helping a guy who had a processing buisiness and spent an afternoon with him. At the end of the night he asked me how many of the people I had met that day I wanted showing up at my house after dark. Between that and the fact I would lose time doing something I loved just to make a little money doing something I was just ok with, I decided it wasn’t for me. I wish you well. And if I’m ever in south Alabama and something on my bow goes awry as soon as I give up finding my wounded deer I know who I will go see.
 
After working on my own stuff with my ratchet strap press for 8 years, last year I invested in a bow time machine and I'm glad I did.

'Cause he might need a new doghouse to sleep in after ordering an Ultimate EZ Press and a LCA draw board. Stuff ain't cheap!

I've wanted to open up a basement archery services shop for years now. Since I finally have a basement, I figured "What the heck?" If I make enough to pay for the equipment and don't have a customer stab me in my home, I'll count it as a win. ;)

Also, there might be a archery series on the YouTube channel. Who wants to know what?

NB could you do a series for beginners? Like THP mapping white tails series only instead bow teching for beginners? Paper tuning for dummy’s, FOC and arrow weight explained, bow maintenance, string replacement.... stuff like that?
 
I’m with @Patriot on this one. I’ve spent countless hours watching John Dudley set up bows which pushed me to buy an EZ press myself and learn to tune. That said I think another perspective would be awesome. Take a bow from out of the box to ready for the saddle and walk us through the steps.

Thanks for all the well wishes and advice folks. I have 0 idea what to expect.

Here's a very hypothetical question for you guys. How interested would you personally be in a bow tech that made "house calls?" EZ Press makes an adapter that let's you mount your press to a 2" hitch. I figure I might could travel to some shoots, or maybe schedule with hunting clubs on days they had cookouts and work days?

I think its a great idea, i work 6 to 7 days a week over 70hrs a week. Time i get off work the nearest bow shop is closed. So house calls, work calls, etc. would be an awesome idea.
 
@Nutterbuster prayers that you find a balance....I've no doubt you'll succeed...just hope it doesn't hijack you and ruin what's really important. I encouraged my son to start a company of his own...he's set for life, but we rarely hunt anymore he's just too darn busy!
