Mathews limb warranty

I'd just go back and point out their screw up.


That's pretty damn bad. I wouldn't let them do much to it, but make them change it back out while you wait.

Yeah ill probably take it back tomorrow. I don’t need to go to crazy but im pretty handy my self. Just don’t have a press. It’s just pretty embarrassing for a dealer to do that. Im not sure that it’s regular but they only switched the one limb. Im not sure if it’s something that needs to be switched in pairs.? But either way having it flipped should be embarrassing for them. Not that difficult. I cut cars apart and weld them back together for a living not that hard to swap one limb on a bow just don’t have luck with dealers around here.

That's unfortunate. I feel like they will take care of you when they see it. Likely let a new guy do it who was all to happy to work at the bow shop til he found out how not fun it was.

Maybe not.


If you end up in need of a press let me know, I can ship you a bow master. Maybe at that point you will just want one yourself, but for shipping you can use mine.

Here’s some pics. Not like I’m lying here. I’ve been think about buying a bow master or similar. But might just save for a last chance ez press. But yeah pretty messed up

Yep, they sure did put that bottom limb on bass ackwards.

I have a Bowmaster and it works great for tuning and string/cable changes, but I don't think it would work to fully remove a limb. I think you'd run out of jack screw travel before the limbs fully relaxed. A Synunm portable press might be able to do it. A "real" press like an LCA EZ would be best.

For now I'd just return to the shop and have them flip the limb over...maybe have a few photos handy to show them how it's supposed to be. You might also ask them to check the draw weight and adjust cable twists if needed (add twists to increase DW, remove twists to decrease).
