anyone out there own a hoyt buffalo.  Have had one since august and am very impressed with it but the finish has flaked off on the riser.  anyone else owninbg one of these experience this?

I've got two of them and they still look new. Can't see any signs of flaking or peeling.

Is it hydrographed (camo)? That aside, I would contact Hoyt. May have been a contamination issue.

I own one as well and havent had any finish issues.  Mine is black riser with the maple limbs.

If you sprayed it with scent killer that is what caused it

My buffalo has silver at the wear areas I touch them up with a sharpie

A black riser and only on a corner here and there. I touch up with flat black rustoleam paint.

i actually contacted hoyt and they said i should send it back to them to be repainted.   I chose not to as i was using the bow for hunting and i live in newfoundland canada and would probably not get it back for 6 months.  I don't want to do without it that long.  anyway  its not a big issue for me i was just wondering if anyone else experienced it or if i was the only one.  i have not used scent killer anywhere near the bow and it was actually a flake of paint not just worn down on the corner.

I have owned one for over a year and purchased a second one about seven months ago. The risers have held up really well. One of the bows has camo limbs and that is where I am seeing paint flaking a little. No issues at all with the maple limb bow.
