and besides if you are panicing about your sights being off or loose and this that and the other thing not working then you must not be storing your bow good enough or conscious enough about how you handle it. in 17 years i have never took my bow out after storage and had any issues what so ever with my sites or any of the above. bought my mathews brandnew last season, its less then 1 year old i doubt i have any issues with it and if i do i have another mathews bow for backup. Granted practice, practice, practice is what we should all be doing but even those guys wound deer sir.... my equipment is TOP and brand new and i have perfect faith in myself and equipment to make clean ethical shots. It guys who cant judge shooting angles on deer and have little seat time in the woods who wound alot of deer doesnt necessarily mean they didint practice since april...
