Decided to upgrade bows this year and after shooting countless different brands and bows settled on the bowtech BTX with 70 lb limbs. has been a great bow up until today I thought I'd fling a few arrows at lunch, well first arrow into my shooting session I draw back settle the pin and was about to let it fly when I hear a pop and my rest drops. I'm still at full draw thinking what the. After inspection I see limb splinters and cracked down the center needles to say I'm done bow hunting until I can get new limb. Very disappointed to say the least and wishing I would have stuck with Hoyt. included picture hope it works
My buddy's Experience did the same thing. Then Bowtech was so kind to send back 60# limbs instead of #70... I had a Destroyer that de-laminated in my hand as well. I would rather shoot a recurve than go back to Bowtech
I had the same thing happen twice to my destroyer. I still love the bow, but I ended up switching brands this year and keeping the bowtech for backup. Bowtech was quick to send out new limbs but does suck not having your bow for 2 weeks.
Bowtech is replacing limbs they will be shipped tomorrow but I'm hesitant to keep this bow as it will always be in the back of my mind every time I shoot. Might just have to buy the defiant like I was leaning towards originally
Defiants are nice, I miss mine a little. Halon 6 was great, a bit heavy but OK. Not crazy about floating yokes, had to shim it to tune it. I wouldn't hesitate to get another Hoyt though, excellent bow.
Bowtech will never get a dime from me. I have seen multiple threads with the same story within the last few months.
Went through 4 sets of limbs on my Bowtech Captain. I told Bowtech to either give me a brand new bow or keep you POS limbs. They sent me a brand new Prodigy. I sold it and got a Mathews NoCam HTR. Best move I ever made. I would never go back to a Bowtech or or the shop I was using. Reoccurring theme with Bowtech.
They are working on split limbs for Bowtech's. I would considering buying another one if they start making them. I had 3 without an issue and loved them (Assassin, Experience, RPM 360). But everyday you read more and more posts about a broken Bowtech. I just can't bring myself to trust them now. Sorry to hear about your BTX. I am glad they are replacing the limbs but I am with on not being sure if you trust it now.
Is this confirmed? Great news if so, I've been waiting.. QUOTE=Coop;1283707]They are working on split limbs for Bowtech's. I would considering buying another one if they start making them.
