RE: 2 or 3 years from now
I agree. Alot of HUNTERS want light bows. I am not sure what all we will see. I can think of a few nice things that could happen. I don' t think there is going to be any " earth shaking" breakthroughs in archery, atleast any time soon. We already have single, hybrid, dual, and triple cam bows.
I am expecting to see dual cams have some major renovations done that will all but destroy single cam bows. I bet that parrallel limb design and vertical force technology are going to really take off.
One thing that I think will happen, probablly within the next few years, is that bows will be broken into two different categories, hunting and target.
Hunting bows will be short, very fast, and light, while being built for the outdoors (tougher camo, stronger and more weather resistant parts, ect)
Target bows will be longer, heavier, slower, and balanced better for accuracy that can' t even be understood now.
I was thinking about hydraulic risers, gel filled limbs, titanium risers, and other things to reduce noise, shock, and weight while increasing strength and durability.
