Shot one a couple months ago and really don't see what the hype is all about especially for that price. Personally think that its no where as smooth in any aspect as a single cam bow of any brand. Ground breaking design have heard some call it. Just a remake from the 80s. Pawn shops, garages, closets, and basements are full of no cam bows. Just like the comments about the you tube videos of the new elite 35 being drawn and holding its own weight makes it a must have and ground breaking. A locked up compound bow has been around for a good many years and just about any bow with slotted draw stop positioning can achieve that, but IMO shooting a bow that close to locked up is not safe. Not downing anyone for getting/having one cause I am a great believer in get what you want and like just giving a little info to help separate the bull from the you know when looking at today's bows.
