Default Free Axis shafts/ Bowhunt America

I waited 8 weeks and still no Axis shafts from Bowhunt America. I called and was told they wouldn’t even start shipping until the end of May! That’s a total of six months. Way to long for me, I asked for my money back. Any of you guys still waiting don’t hold your breath.

Sorry to hear that. I am picking up a 1/2 dozen at my dealer tomorrow, dipped, fletched and cut to length. Can't shootem for at least 6 weeks though due to a hand injury.[:@]

Whats the problem? You're still going to get the shafts and they are still going to be free. Shoot what you have been shooting and just wait till May.

Joe R, did they say what the holdup is? I paid for mine in early January. The ship date doesn't leave much time to experiment with them before hunting season, and I miss them for turkeys. BTW, the shop I buy from sells them for $66 a doz for bare shafts.

BigBulls,
The problem is Turkey and Bear season opens April 15 and I cant kill a thing shooting a magazine! It's my fault I looked at this deal as buying the shafts and getting a free magazine for four years. I also have a problem with getting told "six weeks" before I gave them the $ and finding out eight weeks later it's six months.

Phil,
They said Easton is behind. Funny thing is the shafts seem to be available every where else.

Ewe, thanks for the warning. I saw them for sell on the ne for $72.00 total. If I decide to go with them I'll go that route. (unless I wait until late May to decide)

I sent in my subscription the first of Nov. Called in January and was told they would start shipping after the ATA show. Then got an email saying it would be March. Now I'm told they will ship the end of May. Six months is excessive when I thought it I would get them, originally, by March at the latest. Not that I have to have those arrows right now, but was looking forward to trying them out sooner than six months after my order.

Ordered mine in Jan. as well. They said six to eight weeks. I think they must be hurting for money right now. There is plenty supply of these arrows out there. Wonder why they would be stalling? Hopefully they are not going belly up and came up with a promo to get a bunch of cash flow coming in!

I got a magazine from them a couple of weeks ago. Has everyone else gotten one? I sure hope the arrows really do get shipped. They also have some other promotions now, as well as the Axis arrows.
