Default I am in a pickle, GTO

Well it appears Elite wants to charge me 50.00 dollars for a LH bow. It's not the 50 dollars that bothers me, it's the fact I have NEVER payed more for a bow just because it's LH. I have no ill will towards Elite, and it is their choice to charge what they want for their bows.

I may walk away, I like the bow, but I am not loyal to any company. Just venting[:@]

I've never heard of a bow company charging more just for a lefty. I hope that this isn't a view of things to come in the industry.

I would call them and throw an unholy fit. Over my dead body would I pay extra for the samebow - in a left handed model... Especially since you've already been patiently waiting for months just to get the damn bow.

I'd demand a $50 discount just for the sheer aggravation spawned by such an absurdrequest.

Ah yes, and so it begins...excuse me...your lawyer is showing Just having fun with ya


Germ, if this is a sign of things to come, it only further reinforces my desire NOT to make the switch to LH. The availability of equipment already is a deterent, now if they start charging MORE for that less readily available equipment, not gonna happen with me.
