dont have any experience but I dont ever plan on going to a bow shop again except to buy arrows... maybe.
Sounds like you're screwed brother! You either have to take it to a shop, or latch on to a mentor who can teach you how to roll your own.
How far away from the tidewater area of VA are you? I can show you the ropes and heck I'll teach you about anything you want to know (within my knowledge, which is enough to keep you running but pales in comparison to a lot of the guys on here).
As to the High Country... I have an Iron Mace.... what that sticker means is that "YOU" shouldn't press the bow... you should have a dealer/pro do it for you. Some of those carbon risers can get busted up if not pressed correctly. You can press it just like any other bow... I don't know right offhand of any company that will honor any sort of warranty from damage inflicted by a press (because pressing a bow is not a big deal... so long as it is done correctly). Pro shops have insurance for those reasons. Its really just a warning type label that is meant to scare off any would be shade tree bow techs from trying to separate their strings to install a peep with a pocket knife (you'd be shocked....)....
