Default Creep tune and the equalizer

For those who have shot it , does it aply ? Is it less sensitive to unequal cabels ? One twist can make a diferance with a dual cam , and I thought I read that it can be up to 1/4 inch out without makeing that much diferance , dont know if I believe it but am intrested , as an allegiance may be on order down the road .

It is said of this new cam system that nock travel in the verticle plane stays consistent from brace to full draw. So I'd say that creep tuning will be a thing of the past if this is true. I've ordered a Defender for the wife and I think I'm leaning towards the Old Glory for a "do it all" bow this next year

I'm sure that at this point, only a select few people know the answer to that question, but there are some that know. This concept has been tested by the company reps and engineers, but independent tests will have to wait until they are actually released. If Len tests the system, that will tell a lot, IMO.

I can see where the actual design and manufacture of this system could be easier than the current hybrids. With both cams being basically the same, except for the top/bottom nature of the design, I would think they might be able to get a little more performance out of these cams than the hybrids, since design requirements for nock travel shouldn't really affect energy storage. The Equalizer is definitely a very interesting concept.

It should be an easy test for anyone to shoot a 5 arrow group at a target 50 yards away with the draw stop post set on 80% let off and then shoot another 5 with the draw stop post set on 65 % let off. I'm betting both settings will group the same Another thing that is absent on a conventional dual cam is the draw stop post. This feature alone makes for a very consistent draw length at each shot, resulting in consistent speeds and nock travel, even on single cam bows.
I'm ready to play with an Old Glory
