Well, I'm very pleased. Bowtech was notified of the delaminated limb on Monday and last night my bow was fully tuned and  resighted in and I was whacking the targets again. A four day turn around from notification of failure to shooting again makes me a pretty happy customer. From time to time freak occurrences like this happen with every bow, how it's handled makes a world of difference. I was also very happy with Ted and Kevin at Lucky Shot for getting it ready for me so fast after the limbs got there. It was ready to go when I got off work and they made it a priority to help me get it tuned perfectly again and back to exactly where it was. A big thanks to them as well.

Glad you didn't get hurt.  Impressive customer service, though.

Wonder if Mathews would have done that for ya? My guess....no. Just cause Im not a Mathews fan though! lol
I'd rather ask forgiveness than permission!

I had a cable break at full draw last year on my old high country.. the only thing I got out of it was a purple mark on my chin, and had to get a new string/cable. I guess my lesson out of that was INSPECT everything more often. The bow is still serviceable and still killin deer...it aint the fastest thing, it was rated at 290 when it was new... but the deer cant seem to tell the difference..
