Default Another Bowtech goes crack

Setup the blind this morning before day, at daybreak had birds gobbling in two directions. Did my usual practice draw with a 7 month old 04 Mighty Mite to make sure everything was ready and hear what sounded like a popsicle stick breaking. I let down and checked the limbs the lower had splintered on the edge of the face about 1/8in. wide 3in. long. Needlesss to say I was not happy,hunt and probably rest of season over with that bow. Upon closer inspection in good light I found the top limb has a 4in. hairline split starting just above bolt. Called dealer after lunch he ordered new limbs,took bow to shop after work. Told him to call Bowtech and tell them to put a rush on it,it's embarising after bragging about Bowtech that I now have to break out a 5 yr old Matthews Q2 backup to finish my season. Told dealer if they would take it back I'd pay the diff for a Defender,he said it would be a waste if time to even try. Credit to him though,he offered to change modules on his personal 04 MM(with replaced limbs) or Defender(DL too long) until mine is fixed. I now think it's not a matter of if 04 BT limbs will break,but when will they break.
Just a little pissed blowing off steam in NC,hoping they send them quick. I still like my MM,but not when it's broken.
