Me too. Lots of adjustments that can come loose at the wrong time

I also have to assume they don't want to put all of their plans into one release because where would they go next lol Afterall they are in the business to make money... Bows just happen to be the product HA
Gotta say, these two have really peaked my interest. The tunability is just amazing. Let off adjustments without altering draw length is just one of the new features which I find interesting. I can't wait till they transfer this tech to their hunting bows. I own an Elite and a PSE compound. A Bowtech would make a fine addition to the herd.

I see a 36 in my future
I shot the 36 for a bit last night, and Bowtech has a winner on their hands. I have always been a fan of the Reckoning series bows and the changes they made this year will be a huge hit. If I wasn't shooting a different brand this year for target archery I would have placed my order last night. Not much more you could ask for in a target platform.
I shot the 36 this afternoon. Unfortunately, I shoot lefty and the shop only had a RH demo bow. I only shot 2 arrows just to get a feel of the draw cycle and movement of the bow / vibration with the shot. The cams were set in comfort with draw weight set to 52 lbs. which is my usual draw weight. The draw felt quite smooth but there was definitely resistance right from the beginning of the draw.
The bow felt very quiet when releasing the shot. The bow was bare, no stabilizers, sights, or anything other than a whisker biscuit and the included shock absorbers. On the shot, there was a quiet but audible thump that I also felt but it was a pleasant sound and feeling overall. There was no aftershock or vibration.
Overall, the bow felt light and easy to hold, but of course it would be heavier when fully equipped with stabilizers, etc.
I was very impressed with the bow and put in an order for a LH bow. I was told it will be 4-5 weeks for delivery so of course I will post a follow up once I get the bow.

Lancaster can sell online, according to PJ during his interview with Tim Gillingham.

Can you pay extra and get the 36 in subalpine?

With option for 65 percent let off. I wonder if the 39 would be a good finger bow.
I ordered mine from Lancaster, it’s back ordered so no telling how long before I get it.
