Which magazine, and when? I doubt they've put next year's new bow in a magazine. But over the last several years, they have introduced two new bows: The PA and the PCH.

There have been a lot of speculations on just what it is going to be.
In the new TBM Denny Sturgis Jr and Nathan Andersohn both were shooting Black Widow LBs PLK. I haven't read the story so don't know if they mention the bows in the story.

Whittler said, "In the new TBM Denny Sturgis Jr and Nathan Andersohn both were shooting Black Widow LBs PLK."
The Plk should have been typed PLX...A typo error by TBM...That's all that is. Nothing more. Whittler is correct, there is speculation about a new bow design by BW that will be revealed in 2012. Hope this helps.

On their site they say they are going to.. But they are playing it really close to their vest... My guess is it is going to be a ILF Riser... Every bowyer now seems to be making them..

I wish they would come out with longbow limbs for their TD risers.....seems to make sense, and doubt would be that hard for them talented folks at BW....

Just got off the phone to Roger, and got out of him that they've been following the HH Bug thread on TradGang, and have decided to jump on the band wagon with an American flatbow / D-longbow.

Ben, I don't have any reason not to believe you... but I'm wondering if Roger would really tell anyone this early...
A little leg-pullin', perhaps...?

I talked to Ken Beck afew years ago about making a Hill type bow and he stated that they are totally not interested in it??? I am 99% sure it is going to be an ILF riser.... Only thing that makes since... They are missing out on a large part of the market if they don't.. They seem to keep in line with the trends... Like the really short risers that everyone is and was making.A year later after everyone else they made the "PCH"...

Over 5000 post's in the Hill thread. if any Bowyer is not paying attention to that, just not being a good businessman at that.

Roger from Blackwidow will say there is something new, but we will have to wait until Jan 2012.
The last time they came out with the new PCH, I was able to order it 3 months before it came out, but not this time.
I am surprised they can keep it a secret this close to 2012. My hope is that they would make LB limbs to fit their T/D's, but that ain't going to happen. My guess too is the ILF riser.
Time will tell.
