Hi guys, i dealt with Hoddywell archery for the first time the other week. I called Ernie's mobile number so i could speak directly to him, he was out at the time but said if i email him he'll get right on it when he's back in the office. "yeh right" i thought after having dealt with other shops via email. But sure enough that very night i recieved an email confirming prices and stock for my order. The next morning i gave him the ok to proceed and gave him my details etc etc. Well by that afternoon i had recieved another email telling me my order was on its way! That was fast! Well it only took about 2 or three days to get to Sydney, which i was VERY happy with.
I am reluctant to deal with my local shop even though its not far away, one reason is because i was able to order my gear, pay by direct deposit and recieve my gear from South Australia before i actually had a chance to visit my local. And even with the postage etc i still saved myself around 15-20 dollars on my gear. All in all VERY HAPPY and anyone who like me may be a bit edgy about mail order need not worry.

Great to hear some positive feedback on dealing with the retailers...so often we only hear the negative; thanks bow (and thanks for supporting one of our sponsors too :D)

No worries mate, i have had bad experiences with other shops and put up bad press, but i figured Ernie deserved some good feedback, not just cause he's a sponser but he really did deserve it imo.

not just cause he's a sponser

Absolutely.

G'day all, I've dealt with Ernie a couple of times now and he is as honest and sincere as the day is long. He is a wealth of information and is only too happy to share it.
Regards

Hoddywells is a great shop and Ernie has been in the industry for 25 odd years so he knows his stuff .I very rarely buy elsewhere :)

Me and a mate have also dealt with them a bit, and the service could not be better :)

Recommend for sure.

and going into his shop and dealing with Ernst in person is ever better and i'd be lost without him/Hoddywell.
