Question for Len or any Hoyt techs

I have a 2001 Hoyt ultratec with command cams and was wondering if it were possible to replace the command cams with the new cam 1/2 system? The ATA and brace heights of the new ultratecs with the cam 1/2 system look to be the same as my 2001 model w/command cams.
Any info appreciated!

It is a possibility...yes. I am aware of Hoyt offering to retrofit some of the 2002 model bows with the new cams but am not sure whether the same could be done with a 2001 model. But, be aware, that you may have to change limbs as well as the cams and strings/cables. This could result in excessive cost...in which case you might be better off selling the 2001 model and just getting a 2003 model instead. Just my opinion though.

I would suggest calling Hoyt directly and asking for further clarification on this issue.

Thanks! I'll have to give them a call. I'm having a tough time trying to justify a new bow with my wife<img src=icon_smile_sad.gif border=0 align=middle> I cant blame her , my ultratec is the 3rd new bow in 2 years<img src=icon_smile_big.gif border=0 align=middle>

Frank gave you the same advise that I would have given you. The different cam might require a different deflection rate on the limbs to achieve the same poundage. I've seen a difference of as much as 20+ pounds by just changing the cams.

We Dealers don't have any cam change information yet from Hoyt. You or your Dealer might want to call Hoyt directly as Frank suggested.
