The exploded thing was a joke. But I find it kind of hard to believe that whoever was on that press did not hear that limb "pop". Hedid shoot it like 30+ times after it was serviced, and I think if it were cracked it would not have withstood that many shots. But this is purely speculation on my part. I am taking that you have one of these? How do you like it? Like I said, I love Mathews, I had a LX for 4 years then bought the Switchback and this new one doesn't even come close to either of those IMO.
