Default Bowtech Warranty ?

I was looking at Bowtech's website and noticed that there Warranty doesn't include eccentrics and bearings/bushings. I'm almost positive Hoyt covers these things and Mathews too. Anyone got any hard facts on this? I'm looking at a new Tribute, but don't want a bow with a crappy Warranty. I'm in no way bashing any bow makers just trying to make a educated decision between BowTech and another brand. Oh yeah and my Hoyt is staying put regardless of whichever other bow I choose.

Sounds as if you already made a decision.

The warranty does include the eccentrics, read it again

The only decision I've made is that I'm still going to keep my Trykon regardless of if I choose Bowtech or Mathews. I'm thinking Bowtech a little more though.

Despite what you read on a few forums, they are very good bows that perform as advertized. I doubt you will be disapointed

Not sure about bowtech's but I know that Mathews is top notch. Last year a guy ran over his newSwitchback with his truck and fully loadedhorse trailer. It cracked the limbs, bent his riser and cams. He was honest and up front about the whole ordeal. Mathews replaced his bow no questions asked. That to me is what a Warranty should be. Yes it was his fault but that didn't matter to Mathews.

Idahoelkinstructor...Was the guy that redsigned his matthews from Garland, Texas. I was in a pro shop by the name of Outdoor Pro-Shops in Garland, TX and there was a Switchback that had some custom engineering on it and the shop owner behind the counter told me the guy had just got back fromand Elk trip and had run his bow over...I believe he also said the hunt was over (fortune for that). If it was the same guy...he did some nice work with the truck and trailer!!!Just curious, small world!!!
