XI bows??
A buddy ( a very cheap and not that into archery buddy
) is looking at a used bow from a buddy's sister's cousin's dog's great uncle or something and he asked me about it....XI archery. I told him I had heard of it and that's all I know.
Anyone know...Still around or out of business?
Can he get any work done and find parts if necesarry or not worth the time? Where are they from or any other usefull info would be appreciated.
Thanks

RE: XI bows??
The last I heard was that they were out of business for the second time....but that was via the rumor mill.
They went "out of production" for a couple years and then came back onto the scene with "online purchasing only". The bows also mysteriously looked alot like some of the low priced PSE models..... I guess that did not work out.

XI is done,they had too many warranty problems and got a really bad reputation that they just couldn't overcome.
Scary part is they were made about 20 minutes from my house and that is the same company that bought Bear out.Hope they do better this go round than the last couple.
I am almost 100% sure this is the present situation.

RE: XI bows??
Can someone please tell me the name of the darn company.This is bugging the crap out of me.I know it but it just isn't coming out of the deepest part of my brain.
I had a friend that worked for them and they make all kinds of stuff,like ping pong tables and such.
