    Default Really disappointed....

    Our shop got our first '08 Elite in today, the Synergy XT.....Horrible is all I can say. I work part time for this shop, and I had hopes of shooting one this year. Uhhh, no.

    I do want to say though, it does have some fine attributes. It is a SHARP looking bow, VERY quiet, very quick, and no hand shock/vibration at all. That's where it stops though. That thing pulls like a freight train, and this is the part I just could NOT believe.....

    BOTH CAMS ARE RUBBING THE INSIDE OF EACH LIMB!!! Please tell me we got one that is just somehow messed up, like the upper limb is in the lower pocket.....SOMETHING....Tell me they aren't really made this way....

    No, no one has called. We just got it in late this evening via the big brown truck. I believe he said he was going to call tomorrow, or maybe the rep was going to call him......I can't remember exactly what he said now....But the short of it is no...We got it after business hours.

    Believe me I see your point, and I am honestly not trying to stir up trouble, for anybody. I was just......surprised is all. For the record, he will be making contact, I just stumbled on this forum and thought I would post up....We got the bow in after business hours.

    I understand, but if I were you I wouldn't tell my boss I posted this online.

    you sure you didn't mean 500,000 stock
    with a pay roll of 2,500 a week and only 50,000 in stock means there is nothing hanging on the walls. You would have to turn entire stores inventory 20 times to keep that pay roll at the min. And if you think about it why would you need a staff with that little of inventory. what could you buy with that 20 bows some arrows and archery accessories, and you would still be short on a lot of items.

    I own a hardware store and my pay roll is about 2,500 and I have to turn my inventory 4 times a year to keep it open pay my employees and make a living. My inventory is close to 600,000

    I think you missed the point I'm sure your inventory is higher, it was a joke.
