"Could it be that money motivates your opinions also?"

Now you're insinuating things you shouldn't be. No, I certainly have no problem discussing technical attributes of anything when it comes to Archery thanks unless I'm pressed for time, which I am.... but I do take jabs on my personal character quite seriously. I can assure you that altho I work for and promote the Merlin line, Merlin does in fact still offer twins, and only recently discarded conventional solocams. Being a tech of many years and having substantial "pull" with them, If I or the factory techs thought there were attributes of either that were technically better, believe me I'd still be using them and Merlin would still be selling them! I make my money from Merlin whether we build and sell Hybrids, twins, solos, recurves, or slingshots--so it makes no difference. Besides, for your info I am quite comfortable "money-wise" and money in itself is not a primary factor in my promotion of any products to begin with. I simply want to see and shoot the "perfect bow" before I'm gone, and we've got a ways to go IMO. Technically spinning in circles and chasing tails doesn't help to realize the dream unfortunately.

If you read back a few posts, you'll notice that I admitted to Len that it did indeed take me a bit to "come around" on the hybrid design. I think what you are insinuating about my character is uncalled for to be honest just because I may or may not agree with your preferences. I never expected such from you to be honest.

And--be fully aware that I will respond however I wish and no-one will tell me how I should act or speak on any messageboard because of that, especially when I abide by the rules. Opinions and debates of equipment are fine and healthy but let's leave personal digs out of it please-- I'm not calling the "last word" for anyone other than myself when I state my comments as mentioned above, so feel free to debate, but please don't put words in my mouth or insinuate things that are just not true about anyones' personal character. Thanks. Pinwheel 12
