Default RE: Is this what we are heading towards?

datamax, as far as I'm concerned, there is no point in saying it's gone beyond what archery is supposed to be. If I've learned one thing over the past 15-or-so years, it's this... Seems that the vast majority of latter day bowhunters and archers refuse to consider any kind of limitiations to compound technology. Witness the furor over P&Y's late 65% rule. No letoff limitations. (Of course, this bow would not be P&Y legal because of it's length. They didn't change that rule when they dropped the 65% rule.)

If anyone were to say this bow has gone beyond where archery should be, all it would accomplish is having a bunch of yayhoos up in arms calling that person an anti-compound terrorist.

Been there. Done that. Got the T-shirt.

I still think the crossbow is the logical end product in the direction compound technology is headed. This is just another step in that direction. This thing is practically a crossbow riser with a pistol grip mounted on it.
