.....a bow company may dry fire test their bows in R&D to see what they do so they know if a warranty return was a dry fire or not.

I don't know for sure.....it's just what a bow shop owner told me.
You may be right (maybe not each item)....but I was told that bows are dry fired in the product testing.
I believe they are manufactured to handle it.....not several times or continually though.
In my experience....a buddy dry fired my Hoyt by accident once.....so I took it in for a checkup and it was fine. That's when I was told what I previously mentioned.
