Well i hate to bring this up but i guess i spoke too soon, i went to that mathews shop i was talking about eariler in the threadto shoot with a couple buddies of mine and it started ticking again. Im beyond pissed right now. I tried to get the shop owner to help me but he couldn't give me an answer on why it was ticking and he basicaly told me to f off. Ive been to 3 total shops and no body could tell what the problem is. I just dont know what to do. So im asking, what would you guys do? Im not a bow tech so i cant work on it my self, i was thinking about just trading it off and getting a new one, id really like to have an iceman. I don't know anything about the whole warranty deal, it dosen't seem like that big of a deal to let bowtech look at. I mean its just a little tick in the draw cycle and the bow is still a tack driver, it just bothers the hell out of me that it's doing it. So again im looking for some advice.
Thanks, Wayne

I have a feeling, you got some cable rubbing or possibly an axle. Is the tick right at draw or full draw?

Take it to a bowtech dealer. Ticking isn't right. If your the original owner, it should be under warranty. if the bowtech dealer does not fix it or tells you to screw off, I would contact Pat (bowtech shooter) or bowtech directly.I mean this bow is almost new. Thats just crazy.

I took the bow to a bowtech dealer and he just re timed the cams and put some twist in the string and it did quit ticking for about 50 shots. The tick happens as soon as i pull it back. But i think i will just contact bowtech directly and see what they can do.

I would. A guy shouldn't have to be taking a bow apart like this new out of the box. Might want to give the dealer one more shot. And have him send it back.

RE: With all this talk about cam lean...
Do as they say and go to a good pro shop. Could be a number of things........timing off causing draw stop to contact cam too early, worn spacer, worn bearings(doubt it), bent axle, etc. I've seen a bent axle on other brand of bows do the same thing, causing a very noticible ticking noise.
