Default Browning 2003 Eclipse ZLX bow/cam is out

Just starting to look the bow over myself. Looks like a bunch of strings/cable on this guy.

Looks like they put the nock travel controlling elements/tracks of the CPS on the bottom cam., and left the top as an idler...

strange...

It gets my oficial vote as the ugliest cam made.....How many strings does that thing have?? One cam string and a double cable.....Winners choice is going to love this bow!!!!!! I'll have to try it though....I bet it is smooth to draw.....

I wonder why the string is 8525 but the cables are 450+? Is there some advantage to this?

The string material is more durable, and faster...the lower creep is more desireable for the cables.

I saw a thread about it on another website. I have never seen a cable slide with three tracks before...<img src=icon_smile_shock.gif border=0 align=middle>

I can't wait for someone to give a report on one of these babies! <img src=icon_smile_big.gif border=0 align=middle>





Speaking of reports.....<img src=icon_smile_wink.gif border=0 align=middle>
