Single Cams vs. Hybrid Single Cams
What is wrong with today's bowhunting consumers?
I know a whole bunch of you readers are die hard ad reading Mathews fans. Heck, I was also one too. I work at an archery pro shop and have spent much of my life there. (I can shoot any bow that I want) Why do so many archers prefer traditional single cam technology? Here is why I think they do.
1. The profit mark-up on Mathews for dealers is about 3 times what a Hoyt is.
2. Mathews spends more on advertising/marketing than any other company.
3. They once came out with an innovative product and consumers get tunnel vision.
Anyways,
the fact of the matter is traditional single cams do not provide level nock travel.
Hybrid Cam & 1/2's do. AS do dual cam bows.
This doesn't mean that single cams are not accurate becasue they can be with a good shooter, they are just not as accurate as Hybrid's.
I am talking about shooting them off of a machine.
A single cam string stretches a lot more than a Hybrid cam's string. I'v seen single cam strings stretch as much as 1 1/2 inches. Thanks Zebra!
In my opinion single cams are on their way out and hybrids are in.
Let me know what you guys think. I need some traditional single cammers to beat up on!
