Default RE: What does a hybrid really do that a high end single cam doesn't ?

this is a good place to pick up TECHNICAL aspects of each system---IF one wants to listen and learn from TECHS. Problem is, everyone here is not a tech for one, and everyone is loyal to what they shoot also--- being passionate about the sport most will defend mightily what they shoot or even what they BELIEVE to be true.
Pinwheel12,

What confuses most of us non-techs (or at lest me) is that the techs don't all agree either and each have their own opinion. If we had the majority of archery "techs' coming out and saying this is far superior, then we would be inclined to believe that way.........IF.......... there weren't that other confusing factor out there. I hear people talk about all the reasons that solos are inferior and why level nock travel is superior etc. etc. but solos keep winning at Vegas and in the major 3-D tournaments. I hear the same old argument about how those guys could win with anything, but the fact of the matter is they can only shoot as good as their equipment. Sure, the best shooters in the world could pick up a bow at a pawn shop spend 15 minutes on it and spank me like a red headed stip child, but they can't do that to the other great shooters in the world. The only way they are beating the other great shooters is to shoot as well as the others shoot, with equipment that shoots as well as the other's shoot. All this just leads me to believe that the solo or what ever cam system that I choose to shoot is more than inherently accurate enough to consistently make perfect shots at normal hunting yardages. While I do see the need for these type of tech conversations when it all gets down to it, it's like talking about who's deer is the deadest. Now taking it out of the hunting realm and focusing purely on the target realm there is possibly more validity to this conversation. But, I still have to ask, if duals and hybrids are so much more accurate and level nock travel is so important, then why aren't the guys that are shooting these systems running away with the target archery wins? For me those are the questions that I need the techs to answer, because I can hear all of the technical explanations, but the common sense side of me just can't buy in if I can't see it put into practical application. JMHO
