And yet they pay Royalties to a little Bow company in Hale MI

DARTON

Here is an 7 year old Hoyt. These limbs look great, Btw this is hoyts only year they came out with a dual track idler wheel for single cams. It never really caught on, but a great idea,

I am not exactly sure about that,all that I have ever seen that was actuall fact on that was that they came to an agreement.I am not sure what that was.Is that agreement royalties,it might be or was it for them to quit advertising the way they were.

I'm sitting here wondering that, if Hoyt Katera's are so resistant to dry fires; do they maintain the 5 grains of arrow weight per pound of draw weight minimum that seems to be the industry standard? It would seem to me that if a bow can withstand that many dry fires, shooting a real light arrow isn't going to hurt it.

Just because the bow will withstand it doesn't mean the strings will or the axles will still be straight.

The strings and axles are what is hit hardest by a dry fire.And most never even check axles afterwards.

Hoyt has been doing this for years.

Even one of those manufactuers that does warranty bows that low on arrow weight seemed to have had a string failure in their demonstration at the show when they started doing it.Atleast that wasreported across the net.

Anyone actually see it?

This claim is for all TEC Risers and 5 Layer Limbs not only the Katera.Very good question about arrow weight Roskoe it sounds logical to me.I will try and do some research on this today.

If you look at the bow industry objectively, Bowtech has probably advanced the technology of the compound bow more than most other companies. I think this has led directly to their success....IMHO...
Yep, they are finally starting to get close to catching up with everyone else.
