No offence to Hoyt lovers but, except for the new cams, it doesn't look like too much improvement from last year.
Actually, I'd rather have the new Martin Onza II.
It looks more rugged and interesting than the Hoyts.
Moot point though as I'm sold on Merlin and plan on staying with them.

Rob: No, I haven't seen the new cam yet. I'll hold any comments until I've had a chance to test it one-on-one against the competition. By competition, I mean the C/P/S 7 (new design) and hopefully the Browning Zero Cam.
I'm sure it has a lot of merit; but, side-by-side comparisons have always proved to give me the best information, IMPO.

RE: New 2003 Hoyts -- sneak peak
Well, I am excited. At least Hoyt is taking a new direction this year. Their riser design has always been somewhat unique....their limb design is top notch...all they needed to do was throw a striking new camo pattern on the bows and design a new cam system....both of which they did this year.
I will be really interested to see how these new bows feel and perform. I still want a quiet, low vibration/recoil bow for hunting.
It looks like I will be going with the Razortec this year.
Oh, and I like the names Darn It! <img src=icon_smile_wink.gif border=0 align=middle>
Here is the info reposted for ease of reference....

Wasn't it Pinwheel that posted, "If they keep improving the single cam they'll re-invent the twin cam." It looks like another step in that direction. I'm anxious to see these new bows though, both from Martin and Hoyt. They sound very intriguing.

I was thinking the same thing!

Yes, it was me that stated that. And, altho some are jumping the gun, you'll be seeing more "improvements" from other various manufacturers in January.
2003 will be a good year for archery IMHO, seems like the "5 year turning point" has arrived. <img src=icon_smile_wink.gif border=0 align=middle> Pinwheel 12

Instead of calling it a cam and 1/2 , why did'nt they call it a 3 cam or 4 cam ? Looks like my bank accounts going to shrink again <img src=icon_smile_wink.gif border=0 align=middle><img src=icon_smile_wink.gif border=0 align=middle>
