RE: Frustrated At Bowtech!
I second that mightymite. I am assuming that your shop put the thing in a press at some point. Sounds like they might have busted the limbs. And doesn't the sticker on the lower limb have the date on it? I just looked at mine, actually I thought I bought an 08 too but after checking, it is a 2007. It has black cams and everything. Check that out.

RE: Frustrated At Bowtech!
I just looked and I do not see a date anywhere. Like I said, I really do not care that much about the finish. It is still a very nice looking bow in every aspect. Italsoshot good for the 13-14 shots it lasted. I did not see the shop guy do anything unusual when setting it up. Ultimately I am the one that is going to have to deal with all of this and as I have said from the beginnig, I am confident that it will be resolved. Just a little upset that all of this happened. Not exactly the review I wanted to give on my new Allegiance.

RE: Frustrated At Bowtech!

I just looked again. It has all the info except date. Now that I think about it, it may be possible that the Ally does not come with invelvet. Bowtech advertises smooth mods for the 82nd and 101 but I read on here a couple weeks ago that someone tired to get some and said they are not available. The shop guy said that perhaps they had 07 riser and limbs left over and put 08 cams on it. Anyway, I could have taken it right back and declined on it when I noticed the finish not as advertised but I chose to be humble and shoot it anyway. I can deal with the finish.

RE: Frustrated At Bowtech!
I went there several times to talk with them and demo bows. They are good people and seem to know their stuff. I was there the whole time he was working on the bow. He did not do anything out of the normal. I have been shooting bows since the late 70's and have seen a lot and I do not blame him for the broken limb, and I know I did not break it. It just happened.
