Blanks with warranties that have expired or blanks that have been damaged by misuse,
accident or normal wear are not covered under this warranty. Rainshadow/Forecast
blanks not covered under warranty may also be replaced at a reasonable charge. Batson
Enterprises will advise you of the cost of replacement and wait for approval before
proceeding. Please remove all components that you want to retain before sending
the rod back for warranty claim. If it is a multi-piece rod, remove components from
the broken section only. Please send the entire rod, if multi-piece, so that we
can properly fit the new section. Batson Enterprises is not responsible for guides,
cork, reel seat or any other items attached to the blank. Our warranty covers the
blank only. This warranty is limited to the blank and does not cover direct, indirect,
consequential, incidental or any other type of damage resulting from the use of
the blank. Some states do not allow the exclusion or limitation of incidental or
consequential damages so the above limitations may not apply to you. This warranty
gives you specific legal rights, and you may also have other rights that vary from
state to state.
