They don't do nothing for me.....Like most manufactures, the ultra long risers and short, parallellimbs are what's "in". To me they look less like a bow and more like some wheeled contraption.
On the other hand I hear they shoot great. I think I need to shoot one,maybe then I can look past just how darn ugly they are. When I look at one of these new style bows (not just bowtech) the last thing I think of is....."it looks like a bow".
Maybe I'm just showing my age but I think a bow (compound or not) should at the very least LOOK like a bow. I guess I should get used to it, I don't think it will change any time soon.
