You do talk to your bow right ?

I do everytime I'm wearing short sleeves and I get slapped with the string while not wearing an arm guard.
God Bless,

I had a bengal when they first came out I absolutely loved how it shot....but it went through three sets of limbs in a year and a half. It shot a real tight group all the way to 65 yards but I just got tired of switching limbs out.

 I sold it to a buddy because of how good it shot.

Can you guys explain the limb problem on the Bengal?  When did they fix it, where can I read about it, etc?

I've looked around, can't find any information. :)  Thanks!

I am new to this site, but have read many of the posts and appreciate the knowledge and sharing that takes place.  I have only been archery hunting for 2 years, or hunting at all for that matter.  My father in-law got me interested, and now I have the bug. I have a Martin Ryterra Bullet X, and just bought the Warthog.  I have only shot about 30 arrows, but like the way it shoots.  Been working too much, and need to spend some time with the bow.  Thanks for all the insights.  I will contribute where I feel appropriate, yet as I said, I am pretty new.....

Every person i hunt with shoots a Martin. We all love them. I have a MOAB and I'm not sure when or why i would ever need to buy another bow. It is great! The best part about Martin is their customer service it is unrivaled. You made a great choice you will not be sorry.

Thanks guys.  I shot for about an hour tonight and I am happy with the new bow.  I am in Bellingham, but they are right in your back yard Cory.  I know that there are a lot of good bows out there today, and a lot of the guys on here have shot a bunch of them.

 The sets I cracked were right in the forks everytime? I bought it the first year they came out and I could never get an explaination other than" That just happens with a solid limb" I don't totally buy that but they never had an issue of gettin me a new set or sending them to a dealer that wasn't a Martin guy. So I'm really not that upset with them, but I just didn't want to have my limbs give out in mid August every year :dunno:

Glad you like it Hunt.  Time to keep flinging arrows and get it zeroed in.  I have some work to do with my new bow still.  As far as being under rated or overlooked that is OK by me.  I did see that Hoyt felt they were a good bow company and good bang for the buck.  I just hope they stay in business in these times for years to come.

I am new to site and i would like to add to the list of Martin shooters.  I have an 07 Martin Bengal, and my 4 year old son shoots a Martin ultra lite tiger.  Got my Bengal from Cabelas on Christmas vacation in Texas.  Great shooting bow.
