Problems with my patriot bow.

I just bought a patriot I like everything about it but this, after about 100 shots the loop from the string that connects to the cam came undone and busted my cam up. I sent it to the dealer he replaced the string, cables, and cam. After about 100 more shots the same thing has happened.
I had my arrows weighed when I set up everything and they are well over the 5 grains per pound of draw weight rule.
Has anyone else had this problem?

The only problem (if you can call it that) that I have had is the serving on the cable started to come undone on the cam.
But this was after about 3 thousand shots.
I had it reserved and its like new again.

I am sure BTS will have more info for you.

Take it back to the dealer you bought it from and have him call BowTech and get a return authorization number for it. Since it's the second time I'm sure BowTech will want the bow back to see what's going on with it. It's not a common problem so it's hard to say what's causing it.
