G'day,
As above.

The stuff I'm using keeps getting cut through,after a very short time.It seems to happen after only a few shots.Maybe 150?

Coach,

Its a Primos .44Caliper. A wrist release. Previously I was using an el cheapo wrist release, and it didnt happen then.

Wareagle,
the Spectra , where do you get it? I'm not near anywhere that sells stuff like that. What about boating places?

Yeah Coach,

I e-mailed Primos (Fletchers) in the US.Within 12 hours I had a reply.That in itself amazed me.
They offered to send another one over,no questions.I am to send mine back, when I get the new one! Now thats what I call customer service!!
In the scheme of things, it'll cost 'em very little .But the public relations flow on must be worth something.
Now , if only I could do something about "The Block"!!! :D
I think I'll sit back tonight, and have a few beers,and dream of my new bow,coming next week......

MMMMMMMMM...Switchback..........

At the Goulburn get-together Coach mentioned i should replace my loop ..... i hadn't yet and hadn't had a shot until the weekend...

I think it was the 3rd shot when i punched myself full on in the mouth when my looped snapped :oops: ....

I think i'll listen more closly next time Jeff :wink: ...

I ended up using the cord from a hood on a raincoat. Worked a charm 8)

Cheers, Cam
