Let's say you had an idea, and you made your idea, and your friends saw it and liked it, and everyone you talked to LOVED it, it was fast, easy to use, and did away with 2 "important" parts of a bow.
That "did away with 2 important parts of a bow" scares me a little! Or maybe alot!
Is your "invention" going to seperate archers even more?
Is it something that will sit on the fringe of changing the whole aspect behind archery?
Just something to think about.
A buddy of mine came up with an idea of extending the cable guard rod (with a half moon cup on the end) to allow it to rest on the archers shoulder for a stabilized shot.[&:] When I told him most true archers wouldn't be interested in a verticle crossbow he agreed and dropped the idea.
