FAQ

Can I order directly from Stryker?

We are not set up as a retail facility and are not staffed to take retail orders. For this reason we do not sell directly to consumers but all orders need to be placed with your local authorized dealer. For a list of dealers near you please go visit our Dealer Locator – CLICK HERE for our Dealer Locator.

Can I have my bow refinished in a different camo pattern?
Unfortunately, we do not offer aftermarket service for bow decoration.

I’m looking for a recommendation on accessories for my bow. What do you suggest?
Your local Dealer will be happy to recommend accessories for you based on your shooting style and needs. This is more easily done in their shop since they have the benefit of working with you in person. In most cases, they will be able set you up right then and there.

How can I track my order (both new bow orders and parts/warranty orders)?
You will need to follow up with the dealer who placed the order. We do not log orders based on a customer’s name but rather dealers account information, for this reason we can not cross reference your name to find your specific order. Please contact the dealer you ordered your bow from for product availability.

How can I purchase a Stryker crossbow if I don’t have a Local Authorized Dealer?

Does my bow have a warranty?
Bowtech, Diamond, Stryker bows purchased through an Authorized Dealer come with a non-transferable lifetime warranty to the registered original owner. This warranty protects against any failures of the product due to defects in material or workmanship, and does not include any damage due to abuse, misuse or modifications to the bow’s design. The following exclusions apply:

• Cable slide, cable and strings, hush kit, bearings, paint and/or hydrographic film transferred finishes.
• Damage caused by abuse, mishandling, dry-firing, alteration or modification to original product.
• Other excluded damages are those resulting from either loose mod screws or shooting arrows less the five grains per pound of draw weight.

The Warranty covers product purchased from Authorized Stryker Dealers. Online purchases are only warrantied when purchased through an Authorized Dealer’s e-commerce site, and will not be warrantied if purchased through auction sites such as eBay.

Where can I find out the string and cable length of my bow?
Based on your bow model, and the model year, you can find your string and cable lengths in our Documents and Manuals section.

What is the warranty process?
Take your bow to your local dealer, preferably the dealer you purchased it from. If that dealer is not available, please take it to your next closest Authorized Dealer (CLICK HERE for our Dealer Locator). At that point, the Dealer will contact our Parts and Service Department to determine together with our technicians if it is necessary to send the product back to the factory for further inspection, or if the issue can be easily resolved by sending parts directly to the Dealer. Your dealer will be able to relay all information to you regarding your warranty case.

What should I do if my string and cables need to be replaced?
Your local Authorized Stryker Dealer (CLICK HERE for our Dealer Locator) should perform any maintenance that requires a bow press – this includes changing your string and cables.

What is the benefit of using Bowtech factory made string and cables?
Bowtech utilizes the most state of the art string making techniques in the compound bow industry. We pride ourselves in giving you the most technically advanced bows out there, right down to the string and cables. Bowtech strings and cables go through a 6 point quality check-off on each and every piece. All strings and cables are pre-stretched over a set period of time, and then stretched again while serving to maintain the set diameter. What does this mean to me, you ask? By maintaining the designed string and cable diameters and lengths, they will sit correctly in the cam tracks and you can rest assured that you will maintain the speed and performance potential of your Stryker bow.

Can I get custom colors if I use Octane factory strings?
Yes, Bowtech offers most colors available from BCY. There may an additional charge for custom colors. Your local Authorized Bowtech or Diamond Dealer (CLICK HERE for our Dealer Locator) can talk with their sales representative about color availability and cost on custom color string and cables.

I heard about the quality of Octane factory string and cable sets, can I get them for bow models other than Bowtech and Diamond?
Yes, Bowtech can make string and cables for just about any model out there. Have your dealer ask their sales representative about cost and availability.

I am registering my bow, but where is my serial number located?
Some models do not have a serial number. On current models, it is located on the side of the scope mount.
