I shot for HCA for 7 years (93-00), I still have 4 of their bows, the newest one being a 1998 model. I used to hot rod them for 3-d, shooting 321fps @ 5gpp. I have never had a limb failure in the 15 years I've owned them.
Those are the old HCA limbs right Greg? I had very few limb failures when I sold HCA and there are some stories behind some of the few I did see. Like I stated before I am sure the switch in limbs had more to do with switch in owners than any other factor. Any Limb problems I experienced as a dealer was warranted by HCA even when they should not have been. I've seen Bows Dry fired, Slammed in Truck doors, and melted in front of a kerosene heater. Sometimes you wonder what guys are thinking.
All limbs made today will take a lot of punishment, but that doesn't mean we should punish them. Really!! What's the use in it?
