Stace's story is a bad one, but not a common problem. Actually saw a Hoyt do the same thing on the weekend.
We are a Bowtech dealer (and other brands) and sold a HUGE amount of Bowtechs. The only warranty claims we have had was for a 80lb Allegiance, which is outside of Bowtech's normal spec range and an Allegiance which was not pressed correctly.
That's about a 4% claim rate, which for a bow with so much bad press is good. Talking to the distributor in Oz and they have sold a huge amountw ith an even lower rate than that.

Bowtech will not respond because that's what they have distributors and dealers for.

Bowtech's limb example is why few companies post on ArcheryTalk, it's full of idiots posting utter BS about products.
