I thought this question to be more of a technical question. but I was wondering whats ya' alls opinion on the new Browning Bows with the Split Harness system? Look kinda weird but also kinda cool to me, but whats everyone else' s opinion(s)?

Thanks

I havent shot one yet. I would like to see a good report on it also to find out what the nock travel is.Find out if they solved a problem by going in a different direction, or just designed it because they could.It looks interesting, but complicated.I know I wouldnt be smart enough to change out the string and harness, without the engineer leaning over my shoulder. Those top idlers going in different directions would be handy. You could sharpen them up and trim branches for shooting lanes. Save a pound of weight in your daypack from not carrying a tree saw.

Browning makes good quality bows--you can ask all the questions you like,but you are the one who will be shooting it.Hands on experience=priceless.

I thought the whole idea behind haveing a split cabel system was to eliminate the cabel slide and rod and the tourqe associated with it . Dosent make sence to me . They are calling it a " split cabel system " .

Way too much going on for me. looks kind of buisy just sitting there.
Almost looks like a step backwards by adding another cable into the mix.
it might be a modern day marvel, but I doubt it will sell well due to it' s visual complexity.
