Well My 2011 PSE EVO bow is currently not shootable :(. I went out to shoot today and after shooting it I did a normal quick inspection of it (i dont always inspect after every shoot) and I noticed that it appears one my limbs is cracking....

Looks cracked to me. I take it to a bow shop and have it looked at to be sure.

I took to the place where i bought it and the limb is being RMA'd that saves me 130 bones :)

no actually it was shooting just fine, and had no wired noises coming from it.

The guy at the archery shop told me that I must have dried fried it, or I was using way to light of arrows on it. I never dried fired it, and my arrows are typcially heavier then what he shoots. I typically stay with in the 450 Grain mark on my arrows he shoots 350 Grains or there abouts. IBO states do not shoot arrows that are less then 5 grains per bow weight, so 70 lbs = 350. I shoot 450 grain arrowss so i can say I good there.
