Lady Forge,

Problems like you experienced are the reason I no longer let any pro-shop owner or employees touch my bow. If someone worked on my bow and put 6 dings in the riser and grinded the limbs down without telling me, they would either replace my bow free of charge or give me a whipping and send me on my way or have to take one himself.
That shop is PATHETIC and doesn't need to be in business.
That dealer has no respect for you or your equipment.
You need to contact Forge and tell them what happened.
If need be, take him to small claims court over the damage to your bow.
Although, I'm sure, the LOSER will say the damage to your bow was already there.
Sounds like he needs a few dings to his head!

Im with Sag..you limb may or may not be compromised..but do you want to find out the hard way?

I'm not trying to be critical in your choice of bow, because I've been impressed w/ the forge bows I have seen, but any bow COMPANY that would instruct the dealer to take those kinds of actions (assuming your dealer is not flat-out lying), to correct a problem is promoting a potentially dangerous scenario, and should not be in business. Could you imagine a tree-stand company telling to make a few welds and grinds yourself to fix a problem?

I would refuse to do deal with the dealership, and would let Forge have an earful as well (and after the problem was fixed..buy something else).

There is no excuse for something like that.
