Dear Perris Archery I have just read your article on choosing new arrows and, for all those out there who are tempted to order over the internet, don’t! I was at the Braintree branch under a month ago thinking I wouldn’t mind buying a set of X10s….until Tony took me aside. Not only did he save me well over £100 by recommending ACC's, he also spent nearly two hours preparing them for me (including standing me in the range and making me fire unfletched arrows to find the correct spine) and then reminding me of the basic technique that he, after all, had taught me in the first place, and then allowing me to spend more time on my own in the range testing out the new arrows. I cannot recommend Perris Archery high enough (and it’s not just Tony, it’s everyone) for their professionalism, their friendly and expert service, and their sheer and obvious love of archery. If the shop had not closed (and if my partner had not returned from the nearby designer village) I would have stayed there all night.- Many, many thanks. JE

Hi guys,
Just a big thank you for helping me select all the correct goodies when I came to you recently. Derek was the most patient of people, carefully guiding me through everything I required with no bias towards the more expensive kit and I fully appreciate the time spent with all the help and advice (free as well), I have already returned to your Aladdin's cave in Braintree and will always continue to do so. What more could a budding novice require!!!!!! again many thanks. 

 

"Having just purchased my BMG/Kap Recurve I can only say how impressed I was with the friendly, patient and professional attention I received. There was never any sense of hurry and spending nearly 3 and a 1/2 hours choosing and testing was a very enjoyable experience. Now the proud owner of some fine equipment 100% happy! I have no hesitation in recommending your service and shall be a regular visitor! Thank you".
Mr. T from Herts
