After everyone elses' stuff has been out for 4 months, a few will still be patient and release true " 2004" models---not " Sept/Oct 2003 models"
Jerry-
Rangeball is certainly correct about some of the items slated for Merlins' 2004 release, but it would be stupid to tell everyone about all of the new innovations and pertinent products that you are planning to release before it is time..... the hat from " which the bunny will come" is far deeper than what meets the eye.

For those who have never heard of a Merlin, check out the shooter-input reviews at Archerytalk.com under " Merlin bows" in the General Archery discussion forum. Everyone loves them except for those in true denial.[&:]
The " new products" for 2004 have only started to be unveiled. Word from within the industry is that Christmastime/New Years' will bring many more new " presents" than some might expect. I would advise to not get an itchy check writing hand just yet.
I must strongly agree with JeffB about the new Martin campaign. Altho it will probably work for them and they have admittedly worked hard on their new lineup, to me " T&A" is not the correct way to be introducing families and kids into the sport. JMHO Good shooting, Pinwheel 12
