Default Hoyt Quality???

I was in the shop today looking at new Hoyts and found a problem. I was inspecting an Ultratec cam+1/2 and found grind marks on the riser where the cable rod goes. I am not sure how it got that way but if it came from the factory that way that is very POOR quality control IMHO.


The price was $1159.00 CAD. [][][] I thought Mathews was high priced but this is starting to get a little crazy. Looks like I will be shooting my bow till the wheels fall off.[:@] [:' (]

I won' t go into detail again about the problems I' ve had with the Hoyt that I ordered, if you haven' t checked it out, look in the gear reviews.
I will say this though, it may be because their having " soooooo many orders" or it may just be a bad quality control associate, but I have seen a few Hoyt bows now with some problems. Don' t get me wrong though. I think the bows they have right now (if properly assembled, and machined) are probably the best in the industry at this time IMO.
