Hard to say. There is an adjuster on both the top and bottom cams. Seems like you could tighten or loosen both of them in unison to add or reduce cable tension a bit. That may have the desired effect on draw length. We will have to wait until people play with these new adjustments to see if they in fact work as theory suggests.
It appears that the draw length is controlled by the position of the draw stop on the cam. Based on the photos, the holes that the draw stop screws go into are already very close together. Likely there is not room to provide holes close enough together to allow for 1/4" adjustment increments.
Wouldn't that also require changing the shape or size of the cams?
I will be very interested to see Paige's experience with the 36. I just ordered a 36 as I am a bit shorter than average (height and draw length) and my current bow at 38.75" ATA feels a bit too large.
Not to start an argument, but I followed the facebook link and listened to Paige explain that she has a "grey bow and a blue bow." She said "people ask is one a 36 and one a 39" and her answer was "no, they are identical", but "the blue bow is shooting better" for her despite the fact that they are both set up exactly the same. Perhaps she mentioned a 39 in some other place, but not in this clip.
Very exciting. Please post details once you have it all set up.Dudes! I‘ve ordered the last 36 a good week ago here in Europe and it seems she will knock on my door friday afternoon🫣 it was an online order since there is no chance to shoot bowtech less than 5h drive. So excited to get her in my hands
I ordered the 36 as my draw length is between 26" and 26.5". I already have a bow where I am at the shortest available draw length and I wanted something a bit smaller / lighter with a draw length range that better suits me.
I think Bowtech has not finished writing the actual manual. On their website in the downloads section there is a link for the manual, but it says "coming soon." Hopefully the manual will be as complete and informative as were the manuals for the first generation Reckonings.Wow, the bow came in
But 1st thing I saw, the manual is not worth anything, which is sad because this bow can be bought online with no need of a pro shop.. it even tells to visit a pro shop for tuning:/ Bowtech… you can do it better than this.
Or if Bowtech could find time in their busy schedule to release the actual owners manual ;-)
Great updates, thanks.
This video demonstrates a 10 fps difference between comfort and performance:
I could be wrong as I don't yet have the bow or the instruction manual. However, based on the draw weight curves posted in this thread, I don't think you can separate let off from size of valley. Specifically, the holding weight goes down as you pull further into the valley. Thus, it seems like increasing the holding weight means reducing the size of the valley.
When was that competition? She made clear that the Pan Am was the first competition in which she was shooting the new bow and she only had about 2 days before that competition to set up the new bow. Thus, it is unlikely she was using this new bow in any prior competition.
That event took place the beginning of October, at least a month before the Reckoning Gen 2 was introduced. Thus, of course Paige was not shooting the new unreleased bow at that time. Take a look at the Pan Am video and you will see that she is shooting a blue Reckoning 36 Gen 2.
