RE: Problems with Mathews Drenalin!!!
Well on a single cam bow, I doubt they would replace it. You can adjust the yokes to take out idler wheel lean. Did they measure the cam lean of the cam? But I never did like those skinny limbs. I would much rather have a switchback over issues like this.

Sorry, I guess that the dealer is going to call mathews tommoro and find out but if they dont replace it then this is the second time that they havent, that i Know of,one was the same problem on a switchback and the guy said that after he noticed this on his that he went and looked at all the others on the shelf and they all had diffrent cam lean. I dont have any Complaints about my outback, very nice bow but time for an upgrade.

Isn't it true that since the Drenalin has come out there have been a number of reported limb situations? Could it be from the very slim and light limbs?

Anyway I would think that Mathews would help remedy the problem. I would contact them directly if the shop won't help your buddy.

Thats what lifetime warranties are for. Contact Mathews direct, hell send them a link to this string here and I bet ya it gets resolved quickly and professionally. No company wants negative stories on internet hunting sites. Too much coverage too quickly.

I can say as an employee of a Mathews pro shop, that if they knew the cam was leaning and it was a manufacturing defect that Mathews would replace it. I've worked on a LOT of bows over the last 2 years and am yet to see them deny a legitimate warranty claim, they are the easiest to work with company we sell when it comes to this kind of thing.
Now if it was leaning due to a dry fire, etc.........they may be hesitant but would still likely replace it. It sounds likely that if the string needs replaced this soon and the cam is now leaning that the bow was possibly dry fired causing this damage. I'm not sure what the exact whole story is here, but something is missing from this story, I guarantee this..........
