Sticks and Strings Archery

Sticks & Strings Archery is a small family operation in Chesterfield, Michigan, built around a simple idea: bow work should be handled by someone who actually obsesses over it. Jesse is a certified compound bow technician who's been tweaking bows for years. Melissa brings 10 years of archery experience and a mission to make the shop welcoming—especially for female archers who might feel intimidated walking into a traditional bow shop.

"You can't go forward unless you draw back."

They work with quality partners: Rogue Bowstrings (Dover, OH) for strings and Bohning (Lake City, MI) for arrows and components. Every service includes careful measurement and verification—they document your bow's specs on arrival and match them on pickup unless adjustments were needed.

The atmosphere here is built on relationships, not transactions. They want customers to feel like family when they walk in—and they back that up with actual technical skill and attention.
