RE: Elite releases '09's early.
I like the almost 35" ATA aspect. I'd like to see them make a bow similar to the Airborne's, spec wise.
Judging by looks, these bows will get the speed, even though I know, the cam "looks" have nothing to do with it.
If/when mine comes in. I'll do a review, and see what we get. Mine is a 28.5" 60#. But I'm, probably going to make it 28" 70#

RE: Elite releases '09's early.
The GTO's didn't get the top end w/o some tuning. The fastest 30" GTo was tuned by Cracker's at 348fps. That took changing strings to a different length.
Reportedly, the new cams do the top end as reported by Crackers'.. They cams are DL specific which will make a difference.
THe BIGGEST problem the GTO's had were a bad batch of strings from Nealy. They supposedly heated the strands to hasten the stretch before making the complete string. The fibers broke down due to the 600 degree temp. they used. therefore bows were out of spec. out of the box.
The strings on the new Elite's are G5's. Still use Barnesdale limbs.

I hope the auto manufacturers don't become the next to sue them for using names like "Z28" which i'm sure are registered somehow. They seem to make greaty bows but have knucklehead lawyers.
