I was teaching a bowhunter education class tonight, using my personal equipment for display. I called for a 10 minute break and went to the bathroom. While people were looking at the table of display items, someone in the class (adult) dry-fired my FX. I know what to look for -- everything seems to be ok (except for the peep that was split in two pieces). Volunteer instructors are not paid and are forced to use their own equipment for display -- so I wonder, given the circumstances, if Mathews would honor a warranty based on the dry-firing incident if their product was used as an educational tool, or beter yet, would they consider allowing instructors a discount for using thier bows for educational props? I find myself second-guessing my decision to bring (expensive) personal equipment into the classroom[>:]. I teach over 300 students annually - using my equipment for display, and I know that several people have bought a Mathews FX after "examining" my personal bow during a class. I would like to know what bow companies do you think would offer instructors an educational discount, or at least honor a warranty if something like this were to occur. In other words, which bow manufacturers do you think are interested in helping us preserve our sport?
