I picked up the bow yesterday and it looks great. Turns out Hoyt put in a new riser too. The theory is that the limb pockets were machined incorrectly, which threw the limbs out of alignment causing lateral bending forces on the riser which slowly bent it over time. This makes sense to me as I noticed a gradual shift in my arrows shooting further and further left. I'm happy to have the bow back and stoked Hoyt was willing to warranty it. It wouldn't have happened without the help from Jim Bows. The bow is basically brand new now.
Since this happened in July, I was without a bow going into hunting season. I bought a new bow last season (Bowtech Realm X). Now I need to decide which bow to sell. Any thoughts? I'm leaning towards selling the Hoyt.
