Me too!Ya think the bow was cursed or something! It's a pretty sad thing when you can't take a $400 rig and sell or trade it for $200! I have a bud who has been shooting a Martin Firecat for the last 20 yrs and hasn't replaced anyting on it but cables and the string! Surely Champion is of at least the same quality! It sure wasn't a cheap bow that I can say! Always shot well for me! Too bad I'm 'into' Traditional now...
