Welp, that sucks

[lafn96]

4 days before the season opener, and this happens while I'm getting some practice in over lunch today. This is my first bow, how long does it usually take to get replacement limbs (it's an Elite Synergy)? Looks like it's covered by warranty from what I see on their website. My son doesn't use his anymore, so guess I'm using his.

Ouch I hate to see that. Hopefully they can get you back up quick.

That sucks. No idea on timeline but hopefully doesn't take too long. I've got a couple spare Hoyt bows if you need one to start the season.

Very generous of you and I really appreciate it, but I can use my son's bow since he has no plans of hunting probably till MZ.

No problem. I know what it's like. My pull rope broke once as I began lowering my bow from the stand. It fell 25ft to a dry creek bed and mangled the bottom cam. First sit of the hunt. My buddy shipped his bow overnite from southern CA so I could keep hunting, and I killed the buck first sit with that bow.

Had an unfortunate accident with my bow yesterday morning that broke the cable guard. Got one on order but it will probably not be in till the middle of next week. Hopefully in time for this rain to move out.

One big issue with many of the bow companies is that they can be slow to ship out parts, and for us here, the shipping can take a few days due to the distance they have to ship. Hope you get it resolved soon.

Never dealt with them personally but I have heard good things from elite on the customer service side.

Harvest Archery and Doc really took care of me. He had a replacement limb in the shop - put it on, paper-tuned, and a new D loop in an hour AT NO CHARGE! When I asked how much it was, he said "Nothing, that's why you buy from me"

They've earned 100% of my business, and can't recommend them enough!

I've had 2 crossbows de-laminate. Both were replaced by the manufacturers. It sucks because it always happens right at the start of season.

That is top notch customer service, good on them and glad for you! Best of luck this season!

I'll second that! @lafn96 that makes me want to go there to just check it out

 

[Ski]

Excellent outcome! Great to hear good folks still exist.

 

[Doecrusher]

Who needs a warranty with service like that from a shop.... Kudos to them for fixing you up.

 

[wcw280]

Harvest archery and Doc are both top notch. Won't find better people to deal with. He's helped me several times.

 

[deerhunter10]

That's awesome. If he was close to me I would check him out immediately. Great to have a shop that takes care of it's customers.

Thats great, happy to read good results, Me and a buddy went to Catoosa for the opener 1 year, both shooting a crossbow, he messaged me about daylight and said he thought a tree limb was falling on him before it got light, limb cracked, said he was setting under a tree when for no reason it let go. I hunted for a couple hours and he said he was glad nothing came through, he was going to pull the trigger and see what happened

 

[Carlos]

Get rid of that silly thing and get a compound

Another offer to borrow a crossbow if you can't get your sons. I'm about 15 minutes away.
