RE: Latest overrated fad?

Not attempting to bash, but this was the most telling statement in the original post: "How about the "parallel limb" bow?I have not shot a bow of this type". It is impossible to carry on a dialogue with someone who shoots something down without even trying it or ventures an opinion without the required experience.

Even products, which at first glance seem somewhat gimmicky, such as the previously mentioned air rest, might actually be the precursor to the next generation of rest styles. The first drop-aways had some bugs to be ironed out, but I am thankful to the original inventors because they paved the way to rests like the Muzzy Zero Effect. I've shot thousands of arrows with it without any noticeable flaws. What more can I say, technology is our friend. No one forces anyone to buy something they don't want. As far as cost goes, there are certainly many things that I'd like but can't afford...calling them fads smacks of sour grapes.
