whackmaster,
i shoot a merlin , i'm constantly impressed with the smoothness of the draw. i shot a solo before and liked it but after much looking around i too decided a twin cam was the right choice for me.

i don't post much but i am on to read 4 or 5 days of the week. i enjoy your posts and i rarely have the urge to post my opinion on anything, i feel every topic gets covered well by other knowledgable archers like yourself on here so i don't bother. but concerning the context of what njbowmen saidarchery knowledge shouldn't matter - it seems to me he never stated his opinion on wheather or not someone who shoots a single can tune a twin or not - he merely said for those people who don't they are a good choice - weather that is true or not isn't the issue - he didn't bash single cam owners. by your definition of what he said , njbowmen would have been bashing himself for the few years he shot a solo and he never said he switched back because of the humiliation of being grouped with unknowledgable archers did he? if you can tune a twin but shoot a single your not even part of the group he is talking about. maybe you can get more out of a single than he can, whats that got to do with anything he said - in the end he really gave the single cam a compliment but said he prefers a two cam. i've seen you on here enough that i think if you reread it you'd agree that you made some negative assumptions when reading his post. i've got other forums and message boards where the assumptions and fighting are bountiful, this is the only board i really like though. people should read 5 times and type once. this is why people lurk, instead of having more fun participating, because of attacks when all they were doing was talking to someone about what they like about twin cam bows.

Hey whackmaster, I belong to an archery club full of really good shooters. We have several national champs in several classes, and we were just discussing this topic the other day. We all shoot one cam bows for different manufacturers, because that is what the bow companys want us to shoot. Just the other day I asked a group of the better shooters at the club..what was the sweetest shooting 3-d rig that you have ever shot. After a brief discussion, we all agreed that the HCA excalibur was all of our favorite bow. I can remember when HCA first made that bow. Everyone called it a zulu stick...too short to shoot good. We won a ton of 3-d shoots with that little zulu stick, and shooting in the low 590`s in a 600 round @ 300fps is pretty accurate in my book!
I like one cam bows, but I sure like a twin cam, too!

While I will admit I was quick to anger here and do apologize for it to NJ, the part I quoted in NJ's post was pretty clear:
"Please don't think I'm bashing single cams because they are great for someone who doesn't know alot about tuning bows."
How else would someone take that? To me that reads "If you are shooting a single-cam bow, you probably don't know much about tuning"
