I don' t believe it will put people in the field that do not belong. We have two in the shop that I shoot for and you do have to hold it back because there is no valley. Very stout force curve also. The way the riser is designed there is no feeling of torque at all believe it or not actually shoots pretty good alittle bit of hand shock but nothing that can not be tamed with some sims products. Very interesting design though. One side of the axle is larger than the other and the string actually lays down on a groove cut into the axle. I shot a 60# 27" draw with a gt 55/75 arrow (around 375grains did actually weigh it) 258fps.
