70 lbs is your peak weight, you can drop the weight, but will not be able to go up much at all.

70# is probably the peak weight for that bow. You should be able to back it down to 62# without any problems. Not positive but usually bows have about a 10 pound range per module or cam and they list them by peak weight.

Congrats on the sweet bow! I agree with everyone else.
