Default Whats going on with ROSS Bows Inc?

This statement was placed on the Ross Archery Forums This morning

To all Ross forum members;

I have been in continuous communication with the folk's at Ross Archery, Inc. over the past couple of weeks and have had numerous conversations with Andy and Angie Ross, as well as Mike Osborn. Since the beginning, Ross Archery, Inc. has worked hard with others in the archery business, putting them in a position to provide quality products at an affordable price. Along the lines, Ross worked with Grace Engineering (Parent Company of G5 Outdoors L.L.C.) to have parts provided, to include the risers for the 31" and 33" Cardiac"™s. Without getting into details at this time, Ross Archery, Inc. has decided to take a different path in having the risers and other parts manufactured for the Ross Archery line-up and therefore have parted ways with Grace Engineering due to the high quality standards at Ross Archery, Inc., Ross is moving forward to position themselves with other suppliers in order to meet the demands and quality expectations of its customers. Andy and Angie Ross wanted me to inform you that they will be making an Official Statement here on the forum as early as next week.

I too have been in direct contact with Ross and this statement is True and very accurate.

I got this off another hunting site, and am wondering if anyone here knows whats going on? I guess there is a rumor that they may go out of bussines? I sure hope that is not true, I myself really like Ross bows. Truth be told if I didn't shoot a Mathews I my next choice would be a Ross.

Germ, why lock it? I guess I don't see anything wrong with what I asked? I work in a archery shop but we don't sell Ross, and everyone in the know (our G5 sales rep)seems tight lipped.

I want to first say that I am very far from being a bow expert. Just wanted to make an observation. I shot a lot of bows this past summer trying to pick a new one. after 15 years with the same bow it was time. Anyway I shot both mathews and ross and is it just me or are ross bows almost the same as mathews in looks and design?

magicman the bows are similar, but ROSS has a different riser design.

As long as it isn't slanderous and I don't read it that way or bashing, which I don't read either is there another reason I need to lock it?
