This is the way every one of these threads end up...

It is gone, do not fuel the conspiracy

LOL.......... no conspiracy, just a bunch of drunk shop owners that forgot how to press a bow all of the sudden

The general is special and needs a special bow press. It is a conspiracy by all other bow companies to tarnish the numbers. The truth is out there.

i use to love bowtech i shot them for almost 10 yearsuntill they went with that dumb desighn with that U shapeframe...IMOits pointless andits not accomplishing anything but more money to fix it...after hereing all these reviews ofthem braking im kinda glad i switched

You are 17 and been shooting a bowtech since you were 7???? Or even 8? I don't think bowtech was in business in 1997. Maybe the mightymite. Can't remember.

Pointless huh? It only makes the bows quieter than any other bows on the market, utilizes the enitre length of the limb making them more efficient than a standard limb. Greatly reduces vibration, and makes the bow more stable.If all of that is pointless I guess you're right.

The small number of limb failures that the general is having has nothing to do with the riser design. Thanks for the input though. [&:]

They weren't. Bowtech was founded in 1999. Good catch, I read right over that. Gotta love the BS in threads like this. They take a life of their own.

bigcountry your right it was the mightymite, then bowtech patriot vft, then i was hoping to get another bowtech last year2007but all there top line bows had that riser U thing going on that anoyed me so bad, but it looks like there going back to the regular riser with the 82 and 101, witch i wish they made earlylast year

o yeah bigbulls you are right it is better to have a vibration free shot that shouldbe good when imhome opening day with a broken wrist or a missing eye


and for that 10 years thing i was in a rush and i just rounded to the highest number i dident realize how much that was a factor in this fourm about the general

Like I said, the limb "issue" has nothing do with the riser design. There are three bows that have this same riser design andI don't know how you make the connection between the riser design and the limbs. The risers aren't breaking in half are they?Aparantly this is a very small problem with a single batch of limbs manufactured for the generals.

All of this crap gets really old.
