Default How long have I got?

To put it short, none of the shops in my area carry left handed bows.[:@] So I shot all the right handed bows and made my decision to order an Admiral. I ordered it 5 weeks ago! How much longer do I have to wait?

I'd expect it any day. I know of guy who ordered 2 in black, one for him, one for the Mrs. and I believe he got them in 3-4 weeks.

Double check the shop and make sure when they exactly got the order in but in all seriousness, any day now.

Great choice, great shooter.

Well yes maybe shortly.... but I doubt it. Rob, he said LEFT HANDED. That gets put behind the masses. Left hand bows have a wait time that can become a real bummer. If they have a bunch of right hand orders..... well left handed gets put on the wait list. It's a known deal. Fear not..... it's worth the wait. What are you worried about. You'll get it as soon as they get to it........ or they don't get paid. Hang in there, the wait is worth it.

It's just irritating. The sellsman told my shop guy that it would take 18-21 days. At the time I thought that would be fine, because it would still leave me about a month to tinker with it before KS turkey season started. Well I've given up on the thought that I'll have it for KS. Maybe for MO season. I just hate the fact that the salesman lied, it's been well over 21 business days.

Im a left handed shooter also....I lucked out though and found one bow that was left handed at a local shop and just had to buy the bow or else I was going to wait for a long time!

Did you pay for it in FULL already??? I've heard a couple deals where shops wouldn't order bows until they were PAID in FULL!!! Otherwise, I think you may be able to Call BT and ask THEM "How Long????" That may speed things up. Maybe you should tell them you're also looking at a Hoyt or Matthews that the dealer already has. I know a local shop has several Left and Right handed of both of those brands and a few others right now as I'm typing.
