Brand new Mathews VXR 28 damaged by faulty release

Brand new Mathews VXR 28 damaged by faulty release

Brand new Mathews VXR 28 damaged by faulty release

Help! I’m disgusted to even have to post this but I finally picked up my new Mathews VXR 28 two days ago and absolutely love it. I handed my old bow over to a family member who is new to archery and gave him my old release. In my haste to get my new VXR tuned I needed a new release and picked...
