BTW--

Wonder when Mathews will come out with one?[8D] Maybe we should start a pool..... Good shooting, Pinwheel 12
Never. Why would they? They already have the best cam system ever made. A hybrid is simply a bandaid for a poorly designed single cam.
Ya know, what we need around here is a good Troll Killa'... :)

Silentassasin,

Did anyone ever tell you that you sound like a pretty smart guy?

Jeesh, don't tell him that. We don't need any heads swelled any bigger than they are around here! ;)

A couple of times but it was always family members so I assumed they were just being nice:D I get accused of a lot of things but that normally isn't one of them.[:-];):D

Yeah, it's a shame only two people here will get that. Just doing my job Rangeball. Maybe I should change my nick here? ;)

Bigpapa-- Yep!

Dwd---Thanks-- Much appreciated.

JoePA--C'mon now, where's the love?:D

PMantle-- Oh-- I wasn't aware of that.[:'(][8D]

Len--It's around here somewhere!;) Also you must be selling alot of Bowtechs for you to make a followup statement like that---wait till Rex hears about that![8D] LOL.

5shot--Yep, IF it is all they say it is. I sincerely wish them luck.

JeffB-- C'mon--- nothing wrong with any of the aforementioned hybrids and their draw cycles, that's for sure-- and by looking at the Equalizers' radius on both the string and cable track it will be much the same as the others you mentioned. But you are correct, the booth will be overrun and they will sell lots of bows in 2005.

SIlent Assassin--- Correct to an extent---If that were totally true then there would be no need to go any further with technology at all, right? Why make things more difficult for oneself and compete against those with superior equipment? BECAUSE THEY ARE PAID TO BY THOSE MANUFACTURERS, that's why. Nothing more, nothing less. Individual skill level always comes into play, but if you can gain any advantage while competing or hunting, why not do it?

Rangeball--Yep!

PAB--Yes, he is, I agree!

SA--Also agree.

Good shooting, Pinwheel 12

Kevin, I took Jeff's post to mean "other than draw cycle", as in noise, hand shock, recoil, steady to aim, etc...


PMantle, you're just mad cause you bought an LX :)

ORIGINAL: 5 shot

After trying Dartons CPS system I am sold on "Hybrid" cams.
The cam system has always been great from a tuning/drawing/accuracy standpoint. Personally I just have never been able to find a hybrid with a reallysmooth shooting platform (without adding 5 pounds of sims gear) regardless if it's Martin, Darton, Hoyt, Merlin, Pearson, AR,etc. I think now with BT's inherent pleasant shooting characteristics that may become a reality.

Should be a great year for them. ATA booth will be absolutely freakin over-run.:D
JeffB,
Did you ever shoot the Merlin Max Extreme? I lined it up against bowtech liberty, justice, Mathews (forget which ones), and it at least held its own. I have no string silencers, an old style 7" doinker, and a 3D Rover rest, that is it, no sims gear. The bow draws VERY smoothly, is completely dead on the shot, and even the Hoyt shooters I shoot with in league comment on how quiet that bow is. The only noise is the slight bump from the rest. Not saying the others bows were not great shooters, as you all know, they are. This little Merlin I have is a real nice shooter, add to that it great ability to stack broadhead tipped arrows, and I think it is a real winner. Just some comments.

I have not shot the Hoyts, just can't get used to the TEC risers, but they seem to be nice shooters as well.

Can't remember just who said it but I believe it was Pinwheel 12 concerning the developement of the hybrids and the Cam &1/2... Something on the order of "pretty soon we'll be seeing the re-inventing of the dual cam":D Well,,, I think it's here!! I'm up to three of the new '05's than I'd love to have!!!! I wonder if some of the grand kids would miss a Christmas present or two this year????:([:@]:)
