While I agree with both of you, with the possible exception of service not being available, it's no different for modern compound vertical bows. The market is changing so fast that more and more complex equipment is hitting the street. Some of it too soon for thorough testing. Unless you have tried tuning a bow (something that's not necessary with a CB) without knowing what you're doing, you don't know the meaning of frustration. LSS, if you're not handy, plan to have your bow serviced by someone who is....or get an EXCALIBUR. Even then you have to tighten the screws, change the string and remember to put the safety ON.
