You are correct that is the one that also does the draw loc thing.
Actually we have one of these HD-24 at our indoor range and yes it does really shoot very well, I was very suprised to watch a friend shoot a 300 5 spot indoor round with the HD-24, even though it looks like a small toy at full draw[8D] It has a very comfortable grip.
The cam on the bow is a Parker Cam and the Modules for Parker Cams work on it. I just got them a Parker SCH Module and they put it on the HD-24.
Shoots very quiet.
Rumor has it they are coming out with one in a larger version.

Isn't that the bow that's made to be used with the draw loc thing I saw last year?? Maybe I'm drunk, but seems I remeber the name.

That's a face only a mother could love.
When they can make a bow that short and still be able to have a 30" draw and get IBO speeds to 300fps then they will have something.

Interesting bow. Really parallel limbs coupled with a short riser. That along with the large brace height would explain the relatively low IBO speed rating. However, my biggest concern would be what appears to be a built in overdraw...or something that functions as one. It was always my impression that an overdraw makes a bow more critical of shooting errors not less.
I would give them a B for effort though...
