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?

But if they're made to withstand the "punishment" then they aren't really being punished. Just...used.
Right?
If a bow is waranteed under 5gpp then the bow can, by all means, be shot with an arrow under 5gpp. Without it being considered punishment.
If a bow is said to only be able to withstand 5gpp and no less, then that would be considered punishment.
Right?
I'm just making sure I have my facts straight.
