yes hybrids work, are they the best....doubt it. honestly think about it. I know too many people who have shot dual cams & single cams & never had tuning issues, speed issues, etc. In fact they all can shoot just as good with any of the cams out of the new modern bows. The dual cams are nice, the CPS & the cam .5 but I see no advantage to them over my single cam.....sorry. any new "thing" is billed as the best and the hybrid is one of them. yes it will stick around, a lot of people will use them because they are the in thing but all in all they all seem to work very well from the top bow companies. people shot 300's with old pearson & hoyt 2 cams, the mathews singles, and now the hybrids.....options are good but I am not sold on them being the best thing since sliced bread.
