Default I finally get my bow but with problems

Okay i get a call wednesday that my F5 is in and i told him i probably would be there saturday.I go saturday and get well i didnt my step dad did.I get it saturday night i open the box look at it put all my stuff on it and i am really excited to take it to the proshop today and we are getting ready to go and i felt something on my limb. I take a closer look and i had a cracked limb [:@]I thought i waited 4 weeks to get a bow with a cracked limb needless to say i was furious.I am going to take it back tommorow and get them to ship it back.Good thing is i dont have to pay shipping....i was wondering has anyone experienced this....getting one right out of the box and it be cracked? Well i guess ill have to wait one more week [:@]

Sorry to hear that. I know the feeling of waiting for something to come in and then have to send it back because of one thing or another. Don't sweat it too much, you will have plenty of time to get it set up and shooting before next season.

I ordered my bow from Bass Pro this summer, the limbs were fine, but the string and cables were in worse shape than the string and cables on the 20 year old bow that I've been borrowing from my grandpa (and I don't thing the strings had ever been changed!)...needless to say, I sent it back immediately.

It worked out pretty good for me, they sent a replacement--plus a $50 refund because the bow came on sale!
