Default Correct me if I am wrong but.........updated))))

We were all wrong.........the reason this happened was the dealer put the bow in the press to replace the string and backed off the limbs 3 to 4 turns. This is required per the manufacturer, well each turn is 3 to 4 lbs. Well, when the dealer pulled it out of the press he did not put the turns back in. I was shooting a 60-70 lbs bow at 54 lbs when it was returned the first time. I did not notice it I guess due to this bow being 80% let off and my other bow being 65%. I did comment to my son that the bow seemed alot easier to pull and hold on target than my TRX, geeee imagine why)))).

Anyways, Bear archery called the dealer and MADE the dealer send me a brand new bow. Shot it 20 times and inspected it carefully after each shot, so far so good. Now I just need to shoot and shoot and shoot some more to get it dialed in.

Guys/Gals, take a look at these pictures. It appears that my string on my "Done Deal" has some serious stretch going on. A little background, I had to send the bow back do to the serving breaking apart.

I was told when I recieved the bow back they had rebuilt/replaced the entire string. Now correct me if I am wrong but string stetch for this type bow is usually due to the string not matched to the proper ATA size of the bow?

This has been my experience in the past with friends bows who had the same problem.

Opinions please on this problem?

Thanks,
Dave
