Don - I'm glad they've come up with a better string, b/c they were flat-out ripping people off with that garbage they were putting on their bows in '07.

I got to watch 4 of my buddies buy new Vulcans last year, and thenhave to turn around 2 months later and buy new aftermarket strings, b/c they got sick of twisting theirs back into spec. That just shouldn't happen after you drop the better part of a grand on a bow. I thought it was criminal. One of the bows had to go back with a bad limb, and that was a major escapade, too.

The whole experience left a bad taste in my mouth - and I wasn't even the poor schmuck who got ripped off.

They definitely owe it to their customers to come up with a better offering than what they did last year. That was embarrassing.


Cougar Mag: My bow is a HCA - warranted at 3gpp. I won't get into it, but I hunted this year with an arrow built to 4.1 gpp at over 350 fps. No problems. Bow still in one piece. My limbs are warranted both through Barnsdale directly, and through HCA factory.
