Default Bowtech Stalker Problems

Just wondering if anyone owns a Stalker, and has had any problems. I have a 2003 model Stalker and am getting an awful audible vibration from the top limb pocket. I dissassembled the bow to find that the limb has been rubbing the pocket and has started to chip/fray the end of the limb. It appears that the space tolerence may be to little. It also looks like the bolt hole for the limb is not drilled square in the riser. There is also some visible rubbing at the bottom limb, but no chipping or fraying yet. Quite the agrravation with season coming soon. Any recomedations?[:@]

Ditto that.

One of the bows in my small arsenal is a Stalker and it exibits no odd noises.

There is a small rubber "gasket" in the limb pocket that could have been lodged out of place if you've backed the limbs off too much in the past. This rubber material prevents the limb surfaces from actually making contact with the metal sides of the limb pocket and making noise. Let your dealer remove the limbs to look for the problem.
