And they did not steal the ideas for Ross they created there own version
Huh?
LOL

Listen speculation is fun and all but there is a lot more to the story, and while some of what is being said is "on the right track" the details of alot of it are not.The problem is that the average person can't tell the difference. Even the recent post about the monetary value of withheld stock is way off from the number I was told.

I do have inside knowledge of what is going on right now with both parties, why the split went down etc. I can tell you that ROSS is not going out of business,G5isusing their intended stock of bows against ROSS's will (if you will) and I suspect had intention to do so for some time, and the rest is a bunch of legal and financial mumbo-jumbo right now that will probably never be admitted or agreed upon by either party.

Both feel they are in the right, and I suspect to a degree they have to feel that they arein the wrong as well,however IMO neither will admit that because business must move on and both will do what they can to save face and continue to prosper in a tough industry to make a living.
Both companies prior to this fiasco held respected and trusted brands within the industry and I suspect when the dust settles they will continue to hold that same status.

There will be more to come from ROSS, andI'm sure that youwill be interestedto see what direction the bows are taken now that G5 is essentially using the bows they intended to bring to their own customers and forcing ROSS to compete with the same exact equipment or redesign.

Crazy situation and hopefully I'll be able to share some of the recent happenings and direction of one or both companies as I can.

Don't ask, for now that's all I can share.
