Unhappy Cold Turkey

My bow broke this morning, the bolt holding the cable guard has sheared off. I have returned it to Merlin and they should have it by 1pm tommorow, but I have just arrived at my best patch of form in months and I don't have a bow .

I am entered in the DCAS Grand Day on May 7th so I hope that it is an easy fix

Plus I have to enter a very bad score for the league this month.

I'll get it back to you asap - Though broken off bolts are not the easiest of things to remove from holes..

They just seem to COMPOUND the problem.

New I should have got the XS, it has just cost me £37.85 because it is too large to go Special delivery.

They had better not loose it.

Good News, I will have a bow again by Friday.

Spoke to the nice guys at Merlin this evening, apparently they can't get the bolt out of the riser, so they will replace it.

I think it has more to do with the life time warrenty.

Not that I am adverse to a bit of sponsership.
