bo-n-aroGreat point, thanks for sharing. I laugh when folks talk about the "NEW" mechanical broadheads, changing archery. I have a mechanical head with a 4 inch cut that was designed and built in the 50's. Same for drop away arow rests..... they had them years ago.

BaxterBAnyone remember the TSS quadraflex? The split limb bow from about 1983? I think the ideas have been there but the advance in materials made them stick. Also, the new marketing ploys that convince everyone that they actually NEED all the new (old) stuff :-)
Ahh yes, TSS, Total Shooting Systems! I remember them well. I used to shoot my bow in their range all the time when I lived in Fond du Lac Wisconsin.
