This is why in the past few years I’ve become more tolerant of less than optimum nock travel. It’s a good thing to have for sure, but I suspect that most folks (including myself) are not getting it right out of the box even with bows that are supposed to have it.
Excellent point! The hybrid cam bow I just bought, has the lower cam out of alignment by a full inch or more, when a line is drawn to the other cam. I'm sure the nock travel is anything but straight with such poor cam alignment, but the bow still shoots okay.
for a novice without a
good pro shop, are you saying a hybrid would be better than a single?
I would say the average person would notice little if any difference in shooting performance - at least I can't. I didn't find the hybrid easier to tune (in fact it took longer then any single I've ever owned). My league scores are the same. Personally, I would not choose a bow based on this feature. I would choose based on bowshop support, ata/brace height requirements, grip, draw cycle preferences, quietness, vibration, comfort or any other aspect you prefer. Just my opinion...
