Until I see something that is going to make a difference on game, I'll put my money into scouting.

That's my theory for the last 25 years of bow hunting, upgraded arrows, broad heads, whisker biscuit, better sights, went to a release but as for the bow...30 yards or less...dead is dead but if a limb was to ever break wow off I go to get one of those super light, super fast set ups....son runs Hoyt and well,it's night and day between bows but dead is dead and the game don't know the difference.
On another note are the bows made nowadays to,run maybe 5-10 years then wear out to the point a rep event is required?
I replace strings but that is it on my bow....
