When buying a new bow.... do you???
Want one that has never been shot before by anyone or are you happy with one that has been shot/tested a few times?
The only reason I ask is I know that many bows are tested by quite a few different people each day before they leave the shop as new. If you addded up the shots day in and day out before leaving the shop I would bet some bows will have a easy 200 or more shots fired through them. It would be fun to take a poll from 50 some pro shopsthroughout thecountryto see the actuall results. I wouldbet that80%(or more) of the bows that leaveanypro shophave been shotby someone else other than the actualbuyer.I know that all the pro shops that I have been too are more than willing to let a would be buyer test out any bow on the shelf.When buying newI always want a bow that has never spent a day on the shelf. In my 16 years of archery hunting I havehad only one problem with a bow that needed to be shiped back and repaired by the manufacture. I know it had been in the shop for almost 3 months before I bought it and sometimes I wonder how many shots were fired through the bow and if it was dry fired? Anyway whats your opinion or have you even thought about this before.
