Bow Recalls:
Gander
Mountain has announced a voluntary recall on the 2008 Model GMT101 and Model
GMT103 of the Hang-On Fixed Position Treesstands. This recall does not affect the 2009
models. The recall hazard resulted from
reports that the clasp may open unexpectedly if the strap is fastened
incorrectly, causing the treestand and person to fall
to the ground. Customers should
immediately stop using the recalled treestands and
return them to
Bow Tech
Archery is recalling #60 and #70 bows that may have been incorrectly machined,
resulting in possible limb separation through the center of the axle hole. This could cause major failure and the risk
of personal injury to the archer. If you
bought their bow between September 2007 and July 2008, please contact them at
