IMHO that's companies trying to duck the issue - "They" know that maxing out a 60 lb bow will give a rating in ecxess of 60 lbs. As has been said - maxing out the limbs almost always give a person something in the order of 2 - 5 lbs extra weight. "They" don't know this, or recognize this?? Give me a break. Tug on the other leg, will ya? This one's getting a bit too long and it's tired."your bow blew up because is was at 74 pounds when its a 70 pound bow.... yadda yadda yadda..... thats all....

No disrespect or ill will intended at all, I just have a hard time believing that a bow company will not honor a warranty issue if the limbs were to be bottomed out with the bow drawing just a few more pounds than is printed on the "sticker"?!? Or am I taking this the wrong way?
i have personally seen this with a friends bow. he was honest and up front and explained that he was shooting a 70 pound bow at 73 pounds. the warranty was NOT honored because he was shooting over what was the specified maximum draw weight.
that is your choice for finding it "hard to believe"....... i just thought id pass some information on from a previous experience, because if it happened once , who knows it could happen again sometime to someone else. Im not saying it will happen to someone else, im saying it could.

Pretty cheesy, eh Jesse? "They" know that the bow weight will exceed the maximum if the limbs ar bottomed out - and many shooters do just that.
All in all though, this thread has been very enlightening for "yours truly".
Good one, guys!
