i read on another site that mathews has a single cam crossbow in the works. the owner of mathews supposedly does hold the patent for a single cam crossbow. if its true i bet it will be a high end bow.

How would that work since the nock travel on a single cam bow is anything but straight?

I guess it could work regardless because there is no knock on a bolt it technical just lays against the string not actually held on tight to it.
The xbow shelf is what holds the bolt to the string, so if the cam timing is off it shouldn't effect bolts like it would an arrow knocked on a string like on a true bow.
