yall lazy butts! I have been working for 2 1/2 hours already!!!!!


Talked with Shennen, the place I am going to hunt on 09/02. He set a stand at 30 yards for me yesterday and said he had some really nice hogs comming in at daybreak. I think he is more excited about me comming to hunt on his land than I am. David will be hunting Dove that morning so he is not going with me.

I looked at Davids sting yesterday and it is BAD BAD BAD. He has had the bow... what maybe 2 months now, and honestly he has not shot in the last 2 weeks until yesterday. Could it be that the bow sat at the shop for a year? I am takeing it in today. Do companies warranty stings? ( I told David I didnt thing the stings would be replaced under warranty but why not ask) 18 days till season and he has to get a new sting. This sucks... for him...[:D] I just was really surprised to see actual strands broken on this string already...

    As far as I know strings are never a warranty item. Considered part of the natural wear on a bow. Make sure you have them check the buss cable too, or just replace them both. BTW i've been up since 5 taking my morning walk, so [}:)] on you[:D]

    didn't he get a diamond? I guess they don't use winner choice strings like bowtech does.

    if thats the case, I would be making some phone calls. Both companies back up their products, like they have to in this industry.

    If you need new strings check with Gene at www.genescustomstrings.com . That is where I have been having all my work done. The strings he makes are incredible! This is a real first rate guy. He is even a BowTech dealer so he may have some tricks up his sleeve.

    That sucks. Yeah, I would probably replace it then. Had to have been a bad string. The bowshop that you got it at should hook you up with a new one at cost. There is absolutely no way that it should be that bad.
