Bowtech Allegiance Took a Fall From Tree

Thanks for digging up that thread, bigbulls! I'm gonna send that link to the dealer I was just at, with a brief description of who Len is...
By the way, do you go by 3Dbigbullx over on AT, or is that someone totally different?

Wow guys,
This is all really helpful. Bigbull, you should be a forensic investigator! I was holding the bow way off to the side so the blonde could get in there with the camera. I was wondering if this cam lean I was noticing was normal with binaries because both the top and bottom seemed to be the same. You would think that with damage, one would be noticeably different than the other.
I don't really feel the bow hit very hard, the sound in the dark seemed a little cushioned in the leaves- if that's possible. It sounded like there was only 1 impact, as if it landed flat; and when I shined my light on it, the sight was up.
My dealer wanted me to bring it in by the end of February (after approx 200 shots) so he could go over it and make sure I'm good to go. I think that's just what I am going to do. He'll recognize if there's something wrong.
Lesson learned - when hunting around hollies that the string gets caught in, less knots are better. - Bowline knots only.

I agree with you Bigbull's ,my dually has cam lean as well ,but when I first looked at the pic I never took into consideration that he may be pulling from the side and making it appear to be much worse than it really is. So my mistake ,but just to be sure I'd definately have it checked over just to satisfy your thought's that something may be wrong .Have you been shooting this bow since it dropped ? is it performing as it was ? does it feel the same when you draw ? I should have asked these question's first before stating anm opinion.

Greg, no that's not me. I use to visit there fairly often as bigbulls also but I can't stand the arogance of that place and I haven't posted there in quite a long time. This site is ten times the site that AT is.
Forensic investigator huh. Now that's something to think about. How much do they get paid?
Just kidding. I love working on guns too much to change careers.
A little tip so you don't get hung up in holly bushes again. Get you a retractable dog leash that is as long as how high you climb. hang it on your tree stand when you start to climb and it will automatically play out line as you climb. To lower simply attach your bow to the hook and lower by hand, hang it back on your stand and as you climb down it will automatically take up the slack. It always keeps your line tight and greatly reduces any tangles with branches and bushes.
