Default Bowtech/Ross update - no buyout

It looks like things fell through on the Bowtech/Ross deal. There is an official update on Bowtech's website : http://www.bowtecharchery.com/blog/2008/08/26/clarification-to-ross-news-release-dated-july-19-2008/

Contrary to our prior announcement, BowTech was unable to consummate a proposed asset purchase agreement with Ross Archery, Inc. BowTech has not purchased or acquired any Ross Archery, Inc. product designs, equipment or inventories. BowTech has not assumed any of Ross Archery, Inc.’s liabilities.
