I'd like to see Hoyt changed their hard-Loc system. What I'd like to experiment with is a free-floating hard-loc type system.
Issues that I've seen with the area that retains the spring loaded pin on an ILF limbs is that because they do not change their angle in relation to the adjustment bolt, this area sees some binding when inserting or extracting a limb. If the hard-loc dowel free-floated so that it could rotate slightly this might be eliminated. The dowl could be adjusted with shims as is the current design. The locking bolts that currently thread into the hard-loc dowel would need to be changed into a button typebolt that would screw into the riser. A shim washer placed between this button and the hard-loc dowel could then be used to adjust for side to side alignment.
Regards,
