RE: Another Bowtech goes crack
 

Any limb can break or splinter. Just got my Darton back two weeks ago having the limbs replaced. The top had a 4 inch splinter.

As much as I would LOVE to be able to bash BowTech over this. It happens to the best of them. My Black Eagle with Pro Eagle limbs has cracks in the power limbs, I believe. I will have to get with a few people, but I believe I got cracks. Althought BowTech as had alot of recent crackings, but this site is almost 80% BowTech shooters, your gonna hear about alot of things happening.

Why is that exactly?:eek:

Just sarcasm. I realize they are superb bows, and they are faster, yadda yadda yadda. Don't take offense, just sarcasm.

Ya,, why bash BowTech?? They work hard to make changes and improvements to their line up every year, strive for great customer service and relations with their dealers, offer a lifetime warranty, make speedy bows that are easy to tune and shoot and want YOUR business;) Why bash,, did they do something to you??

To quote a good friend of mine, "If the Indians had Bowtechs, we'd all be speaking Apache now!!"

I had a Mathews Q2 blow a lower limb last year. Fact of the matter is, with the number of bows these guys are selling, you should be more impressed with how few of them really break! Also consider this. When is the last time you heard of a bow company having a recall on limbs? Can you say the same thing about your Ford, Chevy, Dodge, or Toyota trucks? Plus, your paying 30, 40, and even up to 50 grand for them! he he he....

Now, when a bow company does have a failure they had better take care of they're customer. If not, then be pissed and rant and rave. IMHO, no questions asked, replace the product. Mathews did for me without a problem.

LMAO! You guys are worse than me about my Oneidas. Like I said, just sarcasm. They are just the big bow company, and I know that 80% of the archers here shoot BowTech. I just like getting under you wheely bow guys' skin.

*note* Thank GOD, my limbs arent cracking. Just the airbrushing.

Oh...and you wanna talk about customer service? Can you ring up your BowTech and ask for the OWNER of the company, to speak with him? I HIGHLY doubt it. You can with CP Oneida. Dont believe me? Try it out. Call them up and ask for Claude Pollington, if he's there you will get to speak with him.

Dairy, you used to be able to do that at Diamond archery also. I called twice during hunting season and got the owner- he said all his workers were out hunting:D!!
Not anymore[&o].

BTW, I'm not bashing Bowtech on their limbs as i feel all makers will have limb issues from time to time. But to think that there wasn't a 2004 limb issue??? Come on, there are just too many 2004 models with replaced limbs.
And I also at one point was one of they guys saying "it hasn't happened to me, and this is my 3rd bowtech". Well it did, they were replaced, all is good-now.

If you have a 2004 model with original limbs, check you limbs each time you shoot. Heck if you have any bow from any brand check them each time you shoot, just check you 04 BT's a little closer;).

Not bashing, just calling it the way I see it.

RE: Another Bowtech goes crack
 

It's funny you see these post of people posting because they are upset with there bow failing, [:@] and rightfully so I would be upset too, But you know what it happens everyday to ALL bow manufacturers.

It just seem sod on how when something fails that it goes from the greatest thing ever to ..the biggest hunk of junk. You know what, things break. I have seen busted limbs just about an average of one to two bows a week!! We see work on litterally hundreds of bows a month in the shop, this is nothing isolated.. There are thousaonds upon thousands of bows out there in all makes and models. It happens, IT SUCKS, but it happens. It happens to MATHEWS, HOYT, DARTON, JENNINGS, MERLIN, BOWTECH, ETC. and to be honest it is not one manufacturer more than the other. Think about this, most of the limbs are Glass or laminate, and most of the time made from the same manufacturer just on a different bow company. It just puzzles me on how this industry is. The archery community can be a TOUGH crowd. Instead of doing this ford v. chevy battle we should worry more about keeping our sport positive amongst ourselves so those on the outsides do not have any opportunity to tear it apart, geez it is hard enough as it is with all the anti's then there we go psoting all kind of negatives about this manufacturer, that manufacturer.............anyway I am done rambling. I hope that everythng gets fixed in a timely manner and you are on your way to swat big OLE gobbler w/ your mathews or your bowtech....enjoy. JMHO
