Thanks Trooper, that makes me much more
confident. I did look the sockets over carefully
and did find some small voids in the glue joint.
I carefully added some cyanoacrylate with a
pin to fill the voids. That's about the best
I can do to try to prevent water from sneaking
underneath. I love the bow, looks and shootability,
and would hate to lose confidence in her for
fear that I may have a breakdown. Thanks again
for the feedback, it's greatly appreciated!

OK, so if a guy got it in his head that he really wanted a B riser with #3 limbs, what should he be looking for in terms of a 'born on date'? Pre '78 only, or figure that if'n it lasted since the early 80's it's probably a good one?
You know, just in case 'a guy' got it in his head

Jeremy I'd look for one with no cracks around the sockets or at the arrow shelf.There's only a small percentage with cracks...But it does happen...bowdoc

Well Joel, your arrows were certainly heavy enough and not the problem.

I'm shocked at that kind of service from Bear. I know it's not the same Bear as years ago, but I had a Super Kodiak that started coming apart after some years. I has modified the shelf to a crown with a file so I figured I was really screwed. I sent the bow to Bear anyway asking if it could be fixed. After a few months I hadn't heard anything at all. Then one day the mail truck pulls up in the driveway with a box from Bear. I knew it was a bow. I opened it and it was a brand new Super Kodiak. There was no letter or explanation just the bow. Now that was customer service!
