RE: No Fluke this time...... CRACKED LIMB
Hey BM.. I feel your pain! I pulled back my Liberty a few days ago and heard that oh so familiar crack. Yep, my 3rd limb crack in a year. They need to get things figured out before I will ever consider buying one. I am reading about WAY too many cracked limbs to put my trust in them. IMHO bowtech is too new at the bow building business. They need a few more years to get the bugs worked out. I am hard headed & treat every product the same. I never trust a new product until it has been proven over time. |

Buck Magnet, what pro shop do you go to? I was in Gone for a Day on Friday, on Route 422.
Nice little shop. Great people. |

ram96,
I bought my bow from Jeff at Gone For A Day, but now I take my bow to Ace High Archery. Tony at Ace High has a good bit more tuning and technical knowledge about archery than Jeff! |

PA Hardwoods and I were talking today and we had a hunch where you shopped.

I am not bashing bowtech. They need to get things figured out before I will ever consider buying one. I am reading about WAY too many cracked limbs to put my trust in them. IMHO bowtech is too new at the bow building business. They need a few more years to get the bugs worked out. I am hard headed & treat every product the same. I never trust a new product until it has been proven over time. Which where also have limb problems with last years models. The main thing is BT will stand behind their bows and the problem will be fixed no questions asked. |
RE: No Fluke this time...... CRACKED LIMB
Amen to that Aussie,
I took the bow to a different shop than where I bought it (this shop seems to be more tech savy), and they had no problem with that. I showed the owner the crack, and he took the bow and said he would have new limbs on it as soon as BowTech got them to him..... no questions asked! Like I said, I don't like the cracked limb, but that isn't gonna change my opinion on BwTech or there bows. These bows just feel way too good to let a fluke like that stop me from shooting them! |
RE: No Fluke this time...... CRACKED LIMB
ORIGINAL: Ausie-guy Well I would not be too quick to blame Bowtech or the way they build a bow seeing the limbs are made by Gordon Glass who make limbs for a lot of other bow companies. Which where also have limb problems with last years models. The main thing is BT will stand behind their bows and the problem will be fixed no questions asked. |

well, i had some issues with my bow(s) that are documented on this sight, and i can tell you for a fact they lost money on me, except maybe some people who have shot mine bought one. i've never had a company lose money on me with such a great attitude of sincere helpfulness. from our states sales rep, to todd and pat. i know, for whatever reason, i've been one of 'those' customers and they've never made me feel like it one iota, not one bit. if i leave a message with the tech department for a string length question or anything i get called back with a 'hey buddy, how's it going.' i've been mad through this process at times, but always polite, and i've always been reassured and taken care of like i was one of their pro-shooters, and i'm a nobody in the archery world. that kind of respect has won me over as a customer for life. you pick whatever company you want, i know where i'm staying and i know if i ever have an issue it will be taken care of in a timely manner and with the utmost in kindness and sincerity.

That's great gibblet. I'll think of you and your words when I see a bowtech. In my mind I'll be thinking "good bow and a great company too". You own a bowiech! Your sombody!:D I'm sure that's the way Bowtech see's it. |
