    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....
    We take any problems very serious and will be taking care of it ASAP. That bow should not have left the factory with the cams rubbing. We had only one other bow like that and the limb was not within tolerance. As for the 'freight train' pull, well, did you eat your wheaties? I shoot a 60# and don't have much problem pulling a 70# on the new model.

    Sounds like that motivated them to respond. Which is more than what most people say.

    Part time employee posts online that the bows I sell are crappy without my permission, or without calling the manufacturer-Priceless

    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
