One year warranty on any finished bamboo backed bow. 60 day warranty on U-Complete and/or up until the customer begins work on the stave. No warranty on staves, or floor tillered staves
IMPORTANT:
Extreme heat can cause delamination of the bow; do not keep bow in areas of excessive heat, ie,over heaters and fire places, in cars during summer, hot attics, with directly sunlight from the sliding glass door for a long period of time, etc. your finished bow comes sealed and needs no further treatment sealant or oil. Inspect your string often, when string shows signs of wear replace the string, worn or frayed string can lead to broken bows, so inspect your strings often. Shooting wooden bows is different from shooting fiberglass and compound bows. These bows are meant to be pulled and shot, not held for more than 3 seconds. Do not over draw or string the bow backwards (all of our bows are tillered in at 28” (but can be customized for larger or shorter draw lengths),nor do not dry fire the bow, this can cause damage that is not covered by our warranty.
Wood bows are unique and some care is needed, when first strung, it is best to draw the bow to half draw then to three quarter draw, then work your way to full draw. this is the equivilant to stretching before a race.
