Sounds like the advocates of the twin cam should counteract this with their own effective advertising campaign.

My guess is, it will be a tough road ahead of them. I believe many hunters have experienced the same thing I have. My single cam bow is enjoyed more than my last twin cam, because it is quieter, has less hand shock, seems to be easier to keep tuned and I'm shooting at least as well with it as my latest twin cam (never creep-tuned it, because I didn't know how back then).

To overcome this good experience will take some good advertising to show us hunters why a new twin cam is better. Hunters will readily switch if convinced that the twin cam is better for hunting than the single cam, but I believe manufacturers have their work cut out for them, to make that one fly.
