I think they look fantastic. It is refreshing having a company that is willing to change things up to be on the forefront of technological archery.I really dont know why people are hung up on companies that have been using the same technology for so long, or dont refresh things. When a companies single greatest achivement and claim to fame is really just a stolen innovation that darton pulled off 30 years ago, what are they going on.I guess if you give enough bows away, you are bound to win the most tournys, and if you spend enough on printing Glossy fancy fliers, you really dont have much to put into R&D. So I suppose for that slimming a bow down would be a huge accomplishment....I would rather have 0 hand shock personally. I really dont care what a bow looks like, if it is an amazing shooter, its an amazing shooter. And honestly, Of all the bows I have shot in the past year, Bowtech/diamond, martin, HCAand Parker strangly enough have had some of the sweetest shooting bows....maybe its cause they concentrate on archery, and not thier names.
