You might want to return it for the recall.

It's been said we have three brains, one cobbled on top of the next. The stem is first, the reptilian brain; then the mammalian cerebellum; finally the over developed cerebral cortex.  They don't work together in awfully good harmony - hence ax murders, mobs, and socialism.

I think you meant P&Y Bull?  At any rate, not good news for the Bowtech fans.  No wonder they call them Blowtechs  :P

I almost bought one of those last summer they were on sale for around $599 in late August down here since that is when a lot of sporting goods stores start pulling bow hunting merchandise to get ready for the gun season which starts in November. Bow season opens up in mid-October here and goes until the end of gun season which ends on January 31st. Good thing that I didn't.

Wrag,

I just noticed your Sig.  That is one of my favorite movies of all time.  Definitely one that has a ton of quotable lines in it!  Definitely my favorite western of all time (Maybe tied with Unforgiven)... Anyway... Back to how back Bowtech sucks  :D

I'm going to go out on a limb and say that any time your bow breaks apart, it's going to be unexpected lol.

yes it is. anything other than the release of the arrow is.


my martin launched the peep sight out of the string one night. it hit me right on the very edge of my eyelid. i friggin panicked, thinking that i was about to take a trip to the hospital. i didn't need to though, thankfully. i wore safety glasses with that bow after that. i also changed peep sights too......
