The new "Cam and 1/2" looks like a deviation of the Darton CPS system (kinda cross between CPS and CC+). What do you guys think??
Len, have you seen this and how does it compare to CPS?
I like the trend here.

Interesting stuff. I bet they sell a ton of them. Any idea what the ata and brace is on the Super-Tec at 330 fps?
And from the quotes, this one I found priceless-
“Hoyt’s new Cam & 1/2 Performance System is without a doubt the all-around best feeling Cam & 1/2 Performance System I have ever shot!” - Nathan Brooks
Seeing how it's new, isn't it the ONLY cam & 1/2 he's ever shot?

It's only "new" to Hoyt and the USA. Bernadini from Italy has their variation of them also, they call them the "Turbo-cam". <img src=icon_smile_wink.gif border=0 align=middle>
The cam and 1/2 is a sharp design, and IMHO Hoyt will do well with it. Good shooting, Pinwheel 12
I think the Bernadini system looks kind of strange -- looks like a double version of the cam used on the Dynabow. You have been calling for the "hybrids" to catch on for a while now and I think this will be the year for it. This type of system seems very similar to CPS, but with a little more refinement.
For specs on the bows, I think there is a downloadable XLS sheet that list them from the provided link. I downloaded it and it only took a second (not a long download for those who may fear that process), but I haven't looked at it yet.

Very nice stuff...The cam system intrigues me, but I suspect the doofus who named it is the same guy who thought up "HavocTec"..yeeesh...what is up with that..it's almost as bad as "The Bow" from HCA...DUH! At least Darton thought up a really cool name for their Hybrid.
At any rate I'm glad to see them doing their own thing with a hybrid system instead of sticking with what cam tech they had (which IMO, while nice shooting was oh so boring)
Reckon I'll have to have me ANOTHER Ultra or Cyber this year.
Yes, I believe you are correct, 2003 will be a very exciting year. Manufacturers are realizing that John Q Public only allows about a five-year period of "stagnation" before they are screaming for something new, and I do feel it will be a good year for alot of manufacturers tech-wise because they have been working hard on new things. Of course, alot of them "jump the gun" and release product in October,(why, if the dealer show is in January?) but you won't see "the full package" from everyone until the AMO show. From what I understand from inside sources alot of new developments will be forthcoming. Good shooting, Pinwheel 12
My wifes gonna be mad at you for showing the 2003 models<img src=icon_smile_big.gif border=0 align=middle>
I'll have to stick with my current ultratec for at least a couple years. Maybe<img src=icon_smile_wink.gif border=0 align=middle>

I'm VERY glad to see a MAJOR company buck the trend.
Since I first shot a Darton CPS back in 95 or so I've felt that the hybrid system would eventually be the best system. The FM system from Bowtech is another hybrid sort that is worth mentioning, though it is closer to a true singlecam than the CPS or the new Hoyt system.
At any rate I hope that we will see many more hybrids that combine the best features of both one and two cam designs.
