If the limbs are rated 60 - 70lb couldn't they have just backed down the poundage?
Yes, but only minimally. You will only SAFELY be able to drop it to maybe 58 pounds. As you know, to lower the poundage you have to back out the limb bolts....They will eventually come all the way out, and that would be bad. And, if you want that 58 pounds, be prepared for an inefficient bow. Bows are most efficient on their upper ends. To get the most out of it, get the 60# limbs.
