to all those who bashed fellow archers......it should be about hunting...not hating different bow companys...I don't think huntingnet was designed for some of the crap I read on a daily bases with people fighting over issues that no one on here has control over....amen.

Claims of improper pressing, using less than 5 gpp arrows
I recall one of the guys in here, last week (with a blown up general) admitting to pressing his wrong.

I recall another general owner (who's hasn't had any ill effects, yet) admitting to shooting under the 5gpp spec. requirement.

Not really a claim if you asked me.
Who would do this? Geez[:-] I just got off the phone with my Dealer and he has not heard anything about it yet! Man that is weird normally if a company has a recall the dealers will know 1st so thye can handle the problem! I'm not saying there is not a recall at all just does not make sense to me thats all. I called to get new limbs ordered and he said when I hear something I will let you know and then we will take care of it! He said I know nothing about it yet.:eek:

Hats off to Bowtech for stepping up to the plate!!!!

That being said, I am having a hard time accepting the "less than 1% failure" comment when the industry standard for years has been 1% and that was the number Bowtech used as well when they had their "issues" in '06.

Regardless, I am glad to see that those guys that forked out $700+ for one are bing taken care of!!!!!
