Smart is 100% correct, Fay will take good care of you, plus, he can set-up a bow like no other. When you have been around archery as long as many of us here, you will understand, it truly is an art.
Also, if you are looking to set up and maintain your own bow, get ready for some schooling. If you are considering one of these new high speed bows, they are like Ferrari's, you had better know what you are doing if you are going to work on them. It takes Fay two minutes to fix something, where it might take me a hour. Is it worth it? IMHO, yes, they work on these bows EVERYDAY, not just a weekend warrior. Heck, I used to work in an archery shop, but things have changed, a lot. I'd rather have an expert get the kinks out rather than tinkering with it for hours on end. I know what my time is worth, especially if it time with my kids.
Since Fay set up my bow, I've had ZERO issues. Also, like someone said earlier, it is like an insurance policy, if something goes wrong, your local pro-shop will take care of you. Gander and Bass Pro turn over employees consatanly, not many I'd trust there with my rig... No offense to those working there, just based on experience when I've been there. Save yourself some time, money, and heartache, go to your local pro shop, it will be well worth it in the future.

Buy your bow from an archery shop. Support a local dealer and get the benefits of their knowledge as well as a warranty. You wont get that if the bow has been registered to someone else. When you have to buy new limbs because it has been dry fired , that $100 you saved on EBAY won't cover it.

unless you already have everything to do your own work...... you are defeating the point of saveing $50-100. For me it is way more cost effective to let them work on it for me. All I am out is a few dollars and the time I stand there and make new friends and learn more while I watch them work on my bow.

Bows are not like baseball bats, gloves, or sunglasses. There are no "store line" brands that are comparable to the original. Many manufacturers have different lines. Bowtech/Diamond, Mathews/Mission, Hoyt/Reflex. Like I said before, there is a reason that these bows are not available through on line retailers. The manufacturers are trying to maintain the integrity of their product. There are dealers who have their dealerships pulled by the manufacturers for selling bows on line, and at reduced prices. If you are dead set on a binary cam system, then maybe you should look at Darton, but they only sell through dealerships too.
