Is it just me or do the new Hoyts just look plain ugly? The black finish on the cams, limb pockets, and cable slides doesnt look quite as nice as the old ones that had a copper finish to them.I haven't tried them yet and am looking forward to later in the year and i hope they shoot great but im not too keen on spending $800 on bow that looks unfinished. At least Ross, Bowtech, and Mathews makes there bows look pretty before asking you to give up your first born.
Flame away.
Not trying to burst your bubble, but the last time I check, the Switchback XT is black in all of the same locations you mentioned about the Hoyt and I don't hear much complaint about them.
Maybe it is becauseHoyts arestarting toappear alotlikeother bows, with the black eccentrics, etc,instead of the copper,which is making them appear "ugly" to you.
Personally, I don't mind the change. I enjoyed the copper accents and I will enjoy the black accents as well. I think if the Vector/C2 Cams are as big of ahit as they are an "on paper"disappointment to some,the color will quickly pale in comparison to how well thesebows are suppose to perform.
The reason I say "on paper" disappointment is because many people, from all around the archery world, already talking about a "not impressive" Hoyt lineup have never even had a '07Hoyt in there hand yet.
I know you commented on nothing but the appearance and I am not flogging you for a "not impressed" comment.
