Default RE: Versa cam VS. CommandCam+...

Dan,

Feel free to email me with any questions you have...but don't also hesitate from posting them here as well. I do feel relatively knowledgable when it comes to Hoyt's equipment but I will be the first one to tell you that I definitely don't know everything about it. Len and some of the others that visit the forum might though.

Len,

I understand your concern and couldn't agree more. When the Versacam was first introduced last year alot of folks wanted to set it at the lowest possible percentage of letoff setting....which, although possible, was not recommended by Hoyt. That specific situation coupled with the fact that the draw stop peg was rather short created a situation in which the cable jumped over the draw stop peg. The cable then became "stuck" on the other side thus having a similar effect to putting the bow in a bow press.

It definitely was not easy to remedy this situation, especially if the individual was by themselves at the time...<img src=icon_smile_wink.gif border=0 align=middle>

Though it is possible to set the Versacam for no valley whatsoever I sincerely doubt that there would be many folks who would attempt this....speed just isn't the selling point of this cam.

If you get a chance do me a favor and do a little test on any of the 2002 Versacam equipped bows. Set the draw stop on any of the pre-drilled draw stop peg holes and then move the inner cam module through the various settings. See if it has any impact on draw length and/or the percentage of letoff.

I would do it, but for the moment I am bowless...

Thanks.
