They look almost identical to a PSE bow.

Well they definitely get the award for most trademarks in one bow model!

I'll check them out a little closer when I get a chance....Those pockets look interesting? and I assume they must have some dampening stuff in the cam cutouts?

Matt,go back and check out the cams a little closer.The idler and cam is actually 3 pieces, the best that I can tell, and the middle piece is some kind of composite.Looks and sounds like they are describing plastic to me but I am not sure about that.The best I could tell,the same holds true for the cam.


I am also not a fan of fiberglass limbs or high reflex.



I am sure that this is a fine product and would love to try it for myself before I pass judgement but I really have my doubts that it would be for me.

Definitely some interesting limb pockets and cam/idler system. I would love to give one a go just to see how it sounds and shoots.

Looks like some real innovation going on at Whisper Creek. It's nice to see a company look at things differently. It appears they are relying heavily on this new baffler material they are using to absorb vibration. I like the concept of that actuator/bow strut thing. It must come in different configurations because they say you can order the brace height and ATA that you prefer. I'm not sure that I'm too crazy about the roller guard . They say the limbs are made with braided fiberglass and are "absolutely indestructable". Has anyone ever heard of braided fiberglass?

The warranty seems too good. They guarantee against string wear! Apparently this new "baffler" material is much less abrasive then metal. This may be the most intrigueing bow I've seen come to market, in a long time. Anybody shot one?

I've never heard of this braided material either. I will say the limbs look unusually wide.

I'd love to shoot it, but I can already see it way too short of a sight window for me to ever consider purchasing one to fool around with

I remember Jerid Strasheim & Kevin Strother commenting on it at the ATA show, but for the life of me I cannot remember what they said about it...so many bows, so little time

I wonder how much that extra weight at the limb tips (not only from the limbs but also from all the baffling material in the cams) will slow the bow down?
