    I still question if it’s really a bad batch of limbs, or if they are being pressed incorrectly, and Mathews maybe realizes they can’t control that so rather than blame it on their network of dealers (who they need) they are maybe just engineering a limb that won’t fail if pressed incorrectly.

    I just find it ironic that I haven’t seen any issues, the network of people that I know who absolutely know what they’re doing haven’t seen any issues, and then you read on social media or forum boards where the same person went through three sets of them. Something seems off with that.

    Are there LCA specific fingers for them or what ? Last Mathews I had was a V3 and they had the feet on the end of the limbs to seat into the fingers

    Yes there are new fingers specific to them. With that said, you can use the stock fingers but only if you adjust the fingers the whole way in. If you don’t do this specifically the finger contacts the limb about an inch under the pillow block at the very end of the pressing motion.
