First Complaint !
« on: September 03, 2010, 08:31:00 PM »
Some of you may recall that about a month ago , one of our members, Roger Henrie, of NV, bought a very nice 21st  Century LB from me, off the classifieds. Since then I have exchanged a number of e-mails with roger and found him quite a pleasant chap, and very happy with his purchase.

Today, I got an e-mail from Roger and it contained his first complaint:

....................................

"This bow you sent me is ruining my arrows. :-)"

--
Roger Henrie

....................................

With the following pictures -     :goldtooth:  

 

 

 

Looks to me like Roger and "Texas Slim" are hitting it off real well - wadda y'all think? I told him perhaps he better start picking a different "spot" for each shot, as that could get expensive - LOL

Thanks for the very pleasing news and pictures, Roger, my friend.

Oh yeah, let me shoot it and it won't have that problem in my hands. I like those nice open groups so I don't waste any arrows!

LOL - I think Roger will come on if I send him a copy of the thread. He doesn't post much but does "lurk" some- LOL Thanks for looking guys. It really is a sweet bow but I'm sure Roger's focus has a lot to do with it. He sent me a neat video also (but I don't know how to post those - yet) and he is a smooth, relaxed, archer.

Bernie I can't believe you would sell a bow to someone when you knew beforehand that it would end up ruining his arrows. You must of had a temporary lapse of sanity(probably caused by breathing the air around Preston and Don). ROTFLMAO!!!

Oh man, that hurts!
For a reasonable price, I will make him up a set of crooked aluminums. Save him a bunch of money in the long run.   ;)
