We had an amazing experience at Hit or Miss Archery! Cody helped set my son up with his bow, and every time we come in, he is patient, friendly, and never rushes us. What really stands out is that he takes the time to teach my son how to use, adjust, and understand his bow instead of just doing it for him. I truly believe that teaching kids how their equipment works builds confidence, responsibility, and a greater appreciation for the sport. Cody has made every visit a positive learning experience, and my son always leaves feeling more confident than when he walked in. The rest of the staff has been just as welcoming and friendly, making every visit enjoyable. We couldn't be happier with the service we've received. This is the only archery shop we'll continue to use, and I highly recommend Hit or Miss Archery to anyone looking for knowledgeable staff and outstanding customer service! read more

Somehow elitist and not knowledgeable at the same time. First trip in unplanned to buy some practice arrows and was told, "we usually have you pint you bow in so we can figure out what kind of arrow you need." Well I'm not going home and coming back my friend. Just point me to the arrows if you don't want to actually help. Second time I came in for a standard arrow guide replacement and was told I could order one and return to the store later for the $4 very standard item. Why would I order it to the store and have to drive back instead of ordering online? Basic components out of stock tells me I should just order my components elsewhere anyhow. They are definitely composite bow oriented. When I came in the guy didn't even know I was talking about when I asked for replacement arrow guides for a long bow. read more

Very friendly and knowledgeable staff. Good selection of bows and accessories, and an unreal 3d range. Highly recommend dropping in for anyone going through NM. read more

Amazing store / great customer service and a wonderful start for any young hunter in the making. Neil was great - patient, stoic listener...and as you can see from the photo below, fitted my little princessa with a perfect starter recurve, the "little John". She didn't put it down for over two hours. Thanks Neil - see you soon! read more

They worked to get my husband's bow back in working order. They kept him updated every step of the way and he was impressed with their great customer service. Keep up the good work!!! read more

We decided to purchase a new bow for our grandson and went with the best place possible. Jesse was our tech for the day and he got us set up right. He made sure that my grandson got to pick out colors for the string that he liked. It is little details like this that make all the difference to a 5 hear old. Jesse made sure to measure him up, explain all the rules and most of all make sure he was having fun. He gave him lots of encouragement to make sure this became a fun sport for him. Hit or miss you always hit the mark. Keep up the awesome work we will definitely be back. read more

Great bunch of archery enthusiasts. They helped me decide on a new bow and then took the time to set it up even though I was a tourist passing through the city. I will return on my next trip. read more

My 15 y.o. daughter wanted to try archery and I thought it'd be fun to give it a go myself since I haven't held a bow since I was a teenager. We called and set up an appointment for the two of us to be taught together. We're complete novices and we were excited to try it out. When we got to Hit or Miss we walked in and were told to go thru that door (vague pointing towards the north); "Yup, that one" -- it was marked "Employees Only". This leads to an indoor shooting range. We stood around for 5 minutes watching some folks practice shooting. Finally a young man came up and handed my daughter a bow. No introduction, no asking our names. Heck he wouldn't even look at me. He didn't say much as we watched more shooting; what I later learned was a 'range session'. When that was over he told us to go to the corner. I asked if it was noted on the reservation we'd made that it was a lesson for two? No, he answered, and then he wandered off without explanation -- turned out it was to get another bow. He never asked our names, never introduced himself, and most importantly, never asked if we had any experience. He gave us some basic info on how to hold the bow and our set our stance, then wandered off to find some arrows and targets. He didn't give us any vocabulary either... I asked what kind of bows we were using and found out we had compound bows. My bow was too small for me and when he told me I was holding it wrong I told him it was too small and showed him my arm-span. He said, "yes it is too small, but that's all we have" so I ended up having to shorten my pull by bending my left arm. He gave my daughter 10 arrows and gave me 5. Mine were longer but since there were only 5 I ended up not being able to shoot much during each 10 minute range session. I asked another customer if there was another archery store in Albuquerque, and he told me about the Archery Shoppe. We'll be visiting them soon since we were both very unimpressed with Hit or Miss. I haven't ever felt so unwelcomed and unwanted at a business establishment. It's too bad since we are both very interested in learning archery and willing to spend the $$ for equipment, range time, etc. I sure hope archery isn't all about snobby pros sniffing their disdain at novices like us. If it is I guess we'll use YouTube videos and Amazon to figure it out. read more

Neil and crew are amazing and will make you feel like family when you walk in the door. They are welcoming, eager to help a new enthusiast learn and set you up for success. Great shop for all your archery needs! read more

We recently moved to the area and found this place to shoot our recurve bows, the range is really cool, I especially like the 3D targets. Today my husband and I decided to buy some compound bows, and every single employee was awesome throughout the whole process! They let us try out a few bows and once we chose our winners, they helped us in setting up our bows and picking out anything we'd need/want. Being my first compound bow I was a bit nervous but one of the guys helped me tremendously by teaching and coaching my form. They even have a military discount, We'll be loyal customers for sure! :) read more

I absolutely enjoyed my archery class at Hit and Miss Archery. I called a day before and asked to be scheduled for a class for the following day. The team said they could accommodate and that I was good to go. I came on the day of my class, and had my own personal session. My trainer Andre ( I believe I spelled his name is right) was awesome! He showed me proper form and how to NOC my arrow. I asked him multiple questions which he had no problems answering. I have 2 more future classes set up and then I will be returning for practice sessions! Loved learning archery! Thank you guys! read more

See all

The staff at hot or miss always provide great service and they have great selection of new and used bows at a very fair price! I really enjoy shooting the 3D range that goes out to 40 yards. read more

We had a fun session with rentals here today! We didn't take a lesson but the quick instruction from the staff was helpful. They have a lot of fun 3D targets. There's a full shop with stuff for shooting and hunting. The staff were really nice and we had a great time! read more

Great indoor range, but unless your one of the boys you better be prepared to wait for a long time.

My girlfriend and I have been taking Archery lessons from Cody and we're having a great time. He is very thoughtful and is teaching us the correct way to shoot. We also go in to practice on our own and the rest of the staff are very nice, professional and helpful. There has always been plenty of room and the atmosphere is friendly and safe! read more

I'm not a hunter at all, in fact I'm actually a vegetarian, but I had the best time coming here with my 6 year old daughter today learning how to shoot the bow and arrow! The staff was friendly and supportive and the "shooting range" was organized and clean. A nice young man that works there helped my daughter to make sure she was holding her bow and arrow the right way. They moved the fake animals closer for her so she could practice on them. They even clapped and cheered words of encouragement to her while she was practicing. I really appreciated all the help and even though I was helping my daughter this time I can't wait to go another day by myself so I can shoot the arrows myself :) read more

My first time here, just moved from Arizona and was looking for a Archery place that I can get my stuff. I called and spoke with John, got the location and went there few days later. I was greeted as soon as I walked in by everyone and John was there to help. He tuned my bow, check everything to make sure that it was ready for my hunt. He went above and beyond what I expected. They have up to 40 yard range and selection is better than I've ever seen. The owner is there to make sure everyone was helped. What else can you ask for? Nice job. I now have a place to go when I need anything for archery. read more

I had a really great experience at Hit or Miss. The staff was extremely friendly and knowledgeable. They have a great selection at very reasonable prices, like lower than big box prices. The range is huge with all sorts of targets for beginners and experts alike. Can't say enough positive things. I would happily go back again. read more

Helpful and pleasant staff. Our daughter has taken lessons from almost all the instructors, and has always enjoyed herself. Neil, Jonathon, Cody, Jessie, Raul, Marcos ... all good people. read more

The Staff at Hitormiss was exceptional! Professional, Courteous and friendly. Amidst the opening weeks of Archery Season 2017. Service!? Couldn't ask for better treatment. My Mathews i purchased 19 years ago was still under original owner warranty! They asked a few questions about my original purchase. A couple weeks later I got a call it was ready to pickup. Now all this is in the busiest of time of the year. Bow Antelope season just started, in Three weeks Archery Elk opens! Yeah there busy! but was able to squeeze me in! You guys rock and your Store It rocks too! One of the nicest indoor 10 to 40 yard ranges I've ever shot! Choose from 3D animal targets, popup targets. or traditional spot targets! Sweet! They have a fully staffed shop that is dedicated to ARCHERY. A Top of the line Archery Equipment Distributor and Consumables that every archer will needs. Must see store and range!!! Amazing!!! Yeah you might say I was excited to find this place! It just Rocks!! read more

Great shop and staff. 40 yd indoor range is great too. Always an event or shoot if you want, and some of the best to set up and tune a bow!
