ORIGINAL: Len in Maryland
It was an incident that was real and could be commonplace for many who don't have your knowledge. It is fact and not a concoction, as is sometimes insinuated by the likes of misguiding people like Atlasman, who takes distortion of statements to a new level.
WTF did I say to deserve that Len?
I never said your story wasn't true and I never insinuated it was concocted. I simply pointed out that it is more likely an arrow issue or some other combo of things to cause such an extreme situation that you saw. You can't possibly tell me that you think vanes tearing off arrows after 8 shots is normal for the WB...........and still thousands of guys use them every day. Now if you CONSISTENTLY see this happen on bows in your shop with arrows you KNOW are solid then that is a totally different story. Using one dramatic case as an example can have ANY result from flawless to poor...........the normal or average experience will most likely unfold differently. I had a Taylor Made driver that I was hitting at the range and the head split like a melon...........are all Taylor Made drivers bad........or prone to cracking?? Of course not, they replaced it and I have been trouble free for 5 seasons now. What paints the truer picture of a Taylor Made driver?? The dramatic odd ball event of failure at the range or the five years of solid service??........depends what picture you're trying to paint I guess.
You make a post about not liking when people take these discussions to a personal level and then you come after me for no reason.
Why would you say I am misguided??
You should go back and read my previous post because I did not say or mean any of things you accuse me of.
