Why It Matters

Elite Bows Reward Setup, Not Setup-by-the-Book.

Elite Archery builds some of the most adjustable compound bows on the market. That's only an advantage if a Level 3 coach actually adjusts them — to your draw, your hold, and your shot.

Authorized Dealer

Direct ordering, full warranty support, factory parts, and service. Limb replacements and cam swaps handled through Elite's dealer program.

Built Around You

Draw length to your anchor, draw weight to your hold, components matched to how you shoot. The same Elite bow performs differently archer to archer.

Verified at Distance

Every Elite build leaves the studio Labradar-verified out to your real shooting distance — not paper-tuned at 20 yards and called done.

The Lineup

Current Elite Models We Build.

Elite's lineup rotates year to year. We build the current generation and source any model in the catalog by order. Call or text (941) 322-7146 to confirm in-stock options.

Flagship

Era

Tournament-Ready

The flagship competition platform. Smooth, holds rock-solid at full draw, dialed for target archers chasing tens. Common build for ASA and USA Archery competitors.

All-Around

Echelon

Hunt & Target

The do-everything Elite. Built-in adjustability for archers who hunt in fall and shoot tournaments in spring. Popular with western hunters and TAC competitors.

Speed-Forward

Envision

Hunting

Higher-IBO platform built for hunters who want flatter trajectory and aggressive limb design. Pairs well with heavy hunting arrow setups for western big game.

Compact

Ethos

Stand & Blind

Shorter axle-to-axle, lighter overall, designed for tight cover. Florida tree-stand hunters and ground-blind shooters favor this platform for maneuverability.

Adjustable

EnKore

Growing Archers

Wide-range draw-length and draw-weight adjustment without a press. Strong fit for younger archers who'll grow into the bow over multiple seasons.

By Order

Any Elite Model

Special Order

Anything Elite makes, current or back-catalog where available. Lead time depends on Elite's stock and is confirmed before any deposit. Includes warranty paperwork and full setup.

How an Elite Build Works

Five Steps. Two to Three Hours.

From sitting down with you to walking out with a tuned, verified Elite bow you actually shoot well.

1

Goal & Fit Conversation

What are you shooting for — tournament, hunting, TAC, all of it? What's your draw length, hold strength, anchor preference? The build starts with your answers.

2

Model Selection

We recommend the Elite model that fits your goal — not the one with the highest margin. If a different brand is genuinely a better fit, we'll tell you. Our business runs on getting it right, not pushing inventory.

3

Component Selection

Rest, sight, stabilizer, release, peep, d-loop, quiver. Every component matched to your bow, your shot, and your discipline. Custom arrows calculated from spine charts, not pulled off a wall.

4

Setup & Full Tune

Cam timing, center shot, paper tune, bare-shaft, walk-back, group, and broadhead tuning where applicable. Labradar-verified at the distances you'll actually shoot.

5

Sight Tape & Sign-Off

Custom sight tape cut from your actual ballistic data. You shoot the bow on the range to confirm groups before you leave. Walking out with a bow is the same as walking out with a tuned setup — not the start of a tuning project.

Not Every Elite Dealer Tunes Like This

Authorized Stocking Dealer. Then What?

Authorization gets a shop the right to sell Elite. It doesn't get the archer a bow that shoots well. The difference is what happens after the sale.

Generic Elite Stocking Dealer

Sold From the Wall.

Factory Spec · Indoor Range

Elite ships the bow at factory spec. Most dealers paper-tune at 20 yards, hand it over, and call the build done. Limited or no outdoor verification.

The archer takes home a generic-feel Elite. Six months later they're chasing groups at distance and don't know why.

Archery Sarasota

Labradar-verified ballistics. Custom sight tape cut from your real numbers. You shoot it before you take it — and you can come back to fine-tune anytime.

Frequently Asked

Elite Archery Dealer Questions.

What Florida archers ask most often before booking an Elite build.

Is Archery Sarasota an authorized Elite Archery dealer?

Yes. Archery Sarasota is an authorized Elite Archery dealer in Sarasota, Florida. We carry the current Elite lineup, build to spec, and provide full setup and tuning. We also work with all other compound bow brands — our recommendation is always based on what’s right for the archer, not what we have in stock.

Where can I find an Elite Archery dealer in Florida?

Florida’s Elite Archery dealer options are limited. Archery Sarasota is one of them — located at 7524 Castle Dr, Sarasota, FL 34240. Archers from Tampa, Bradenton, Lakewood Ranch, Venice, North Port, Naples, Fort Myers, Orlando, and Miami travel to Sarasota for Elite builds because the brand isn’t widely stocked in Florida pro shops.

What Elite Archery bows do you carry?

We carry the current Elite Archery lineup — the Era, Echelon, Envision, Ethos, EnKore, and other current-generation models. Lineup changes year to year. Call or text (941) 322-7146 to confirm what’s in stock or order in. We can also order and tune any model in the Elite catalog.

How much does a custom Elite bow build cost?

The build service is $100 per hour, billed at the same rate as all our service work. A typical custom Elite build takes 2 to 3 hours including consultation, fitting, component selection, setup, and tune. The bow and components are separate and vary by model and configuration.

Why buy from a USA Archery Level 3 dealer instead of a big-box retailer?

A Level 3 certified coach builds the bow around the archer — fitting draw length to your actual anchor, draw weight to your hold strength, and configuring components for how you actually shoot. Big-box retailers configure to factory spec. The same Elite bow can shoot completely differently depending on whether it was set up generically or fit specifically. We deliver the second.

Do you tune Elite bows bought elsewhere?

Yes. Bring an Elite bow purchased elsewhere — we’ll tune it, fit it, and service it. The tune is $100 per hour. Most archers who bought online without a fitting need at least a 2-hour session to get the bow shooting like it should. Our service applies whether you bought the bow from us or not.

Do you stock Elite parts and accessories?

We stock the most-requested Elite limbs, cams, and dampers. Specialized parts are ordered direct from Elite. Lead time is usually a few business days. We also handle warranty claims and limb-replacement programs through Elite’s dealer support.
