Default Slightly Pissed Off

So in 2008 I broke my old Darton bow and decided to get a new one. So I rushed off and got a Darton AS300. This is my third season with this bow and I finally noticed (should have before but I didn't) that my drop away rest is coming in contact with my blazer vanes. I have to shoot this bow with the off color vane offset to the right in order to obtain clearance with the cables. When I do this, one vane is hitting the rest after it falls. Now the simple solution is to change back to traditional vanes. They are not as tall and would easily clear my rest. However, I am not going to do this. I have my set up rigged so I am getting optimal performance (even though the vane is hitting the rest slightly it does not interfere with the flight). I refuse to compromise on this. It is rediculous that I can not shoot the equipment I want with the bow that I want. I went to the archery pro the other day to try and see if this can be corrected, guess what, it can't. If I put on a different cable bar (the current one is straight) I will throw the timing off on the cams and it also may cause the string to come off the cams. Now I have been a loyal Darton shooter for 10 years and I really don't want to change. However, unless the company does something I don't have a choice. Thanks for reading...I am just very upset. If anyone has any suggestions plz feel free to tell me.
