In ten years, I'll probably need 40 pound limbs instead of 60's...

In my experience, they have always been very customer supportive.

I still like their products. Pretty fair "Bang for the Buck".

That's why Winchester, Remington and Ruger are all still in business.

I've been shooting my Bear Lights Out for two years...
Purchased as a bare bow...added a cheap PSE 4-pin sight and a limbsaver fall-away rest.

I have zero complaints. Not the fastest bow on the market, but very quiet and pretty smooth. I'd buy it again in a heartbeat.

I won't say they're a "best bow" on the market, but a very good bang for the buck...
I left it better than I found it...did you?

Just to clear any confusion I may have created, here is the reply I received from Bear Archery regarding warranties on their products:


----- Original Message -----
From: Bear CustomerCare
To: Konrad
Sent: Thursday, June 24, 2010 8:13 AM
Subject: Re: warranty


Konrad,

Our warranty as of 2008 is as follows:

For the first 5 years from the date of purchase to the original owner, the limbs are covered 100% for the first 5 years and then the owner is responsible for 50% after the 5 years.  The riser and cams have a lifetime warranty .

This warranty is in effect today with the current line.  The string and cable are never covered under warranty.   

Thanks

Kristene

I hope this helps and "Thanks" to Kristene for a prompt reply.

Fred Bear is not bad for the price I use to own an Instinct. Just look on the classifieds on acherytalk.com and you can find some smoking deals.

Pick a price range and shoot every bow in that range.  Buy the best bow you can afford, and Buy the most comfortable bow for YOU.  I own a '08 Bear Game Over and LOVE it.  I like it more than my Dads Diamond, But his fits him better.  Everyone is going to give you an opinion and a reason.  I love my Bow but that doesn't mean you would. Get me ;)
Push the envelope of your abilities, but respect the life of the quarry
