For one I don't know why you'd want to go 80# letoff ,The dually has such a short valley I'd think you'd have a hard time with control and release. I might be wrong this is just my opinion I hope some others can come up with opinion's on this.

I also think 80% letoff leaves the holding weight a little on the light side, but for strickly hunting purposes now that Pope & Young lets higher letoff bow taken animals in the book (with an *) I think it would be nice to maybe see 70% just for when you may be at fulldraw and have to wait for the shot.

I think anything is a possibility for 2005. If enough folks request it then Bowtech has been known to deliver.

I would like to see it with an 80% letoff. Actually while I am making a request I would like a little more valley also. If it came with both of those I would trade in the LX for a Dually right now.

High letoff is bad news on a hard dual cam bow. It makes cam synchronization extremely critical.

More valley I'd like to see, but not high letoff.

I agree with that. The Dually needs more Valley. More valley and they have one sold.
I did not know that the additional letoff would be an issue for timing. If that is the case I vote for more valley.

After shooting mine for a few weeks.. the dually valley is very easy to get used to. In the beginning I thought it was really short.. but it's not soo bad now.

Wait till you have been shooting it for over a year like I have.

Then the valley on the single feels like the grand canyon
