Maybe these marks got on these bows from what Matt is saying, or from extensive shooting. Time will tell. Until then, buyer beware. Now, I owned 3 Bowtechs this year, an 82nd Airborne, a Tribute, and a Guardian. So, how do you know what I will buy this year? I also owned 4 Elites this year, and am down to one bow right now, an elite GTO. I am waiting for a new SR-71 Strother from Crackers to arrive. I buy, shoot, sell, trade bows all of the time. I have no agenda, but Bowtech Corporate advisers do.

Explained over and over by Corporate Bowtech Advisory guys like you that either sell them or benefit from promoting Bowtech, and others that have a venue to protect Bowtech from any bad press.
The guys that own the bows haven't stated that their bows were damaged by the explanation we are being force fed, and no dealer has come on and admitted he scratched the bows with his lack of skill as a tech. The pics show the cam so tight against the limb, that it is fathomable there is going to be issues. Limbs flex, twist, and cams can move.

Big Country, seriously? You of all people taking that road? Please. Don is strictly being an instigator, creating false accusations, the Corp Staff are suppose to assist in issues, they have done that and yet there are people truly reaching to find an issue that doesn't exist. What are they/we to do? There is NO issue with cam/limb contact while in the act of shooting! The only time a cam can contact the limb is while the bow is in a press and the cam is rotated where the lower lobe can touch the limb creating that little tiny mark in the finish, not construction of the limb itself. There is nothing to sweep under the rug, there is nothing to keep the lid on. There is no functional, performance issue. I'll keep your reported posts in mind when I read and get reports on your posts from here on out. Thank you for the eye opener.

Lol...so I Posted those pics on AT of the scraped limbs? Now I am a liar and an instigator?? Wow, what ridiculous behavior you "fanboys" will resort to.
Some of us would like to hear from "actual" owners that the Pinto is OK instead of from Ford Motor Company.

You posted no pictures on AT Don. I searched your posts. No pictures of scraped limbs and there is NO ONE that has said they've seen the cams scrape while in the draw or shooting process. NO one. atlasman started all the insinuations and his bow has no marks and never will if they never press it again. I'm sure he'll never have them because he'll over see that the cam doesn't get over rotated.
Love your underlying attacks Don, classic Don while back peddling. I'll tell you what, when my 340 comes in, I'll purposely show video about how it's done. That little mark on the inside of my limbs won't bother me in the list. All 6 bows hanging in my basement right now have worse marks from every day use.
Keep trying to find an issue that doesn't exist.

NO DON! FROM MATT! He over sees it, looked into it and resolved it.

I went to the mat being a fanboy when the whole general thing went down. Never again will I stick my neck out like that for bowtech.
I know bowtech did not ask for me to stick my neck out, but what I am trying to explain is I will not automatically doubt problems reported on the internet until bowtech decides to do a major recall.
