Parker is apparently working on it should be ready "in several weeks". Don't try to cock this bow if your back is limited, it's a bear. Shot mine half dozen times last night and had back twinges much of the night (twice surgerized back). It feels a lot more than the supposed 175 draw weight it is; cams have no let off.
PS Thats why I largely hunt with mine, had use a Excal Phoenix for fun shooting.

Very cool! What have you harvested with the Cyclone? What broadheads did you use? Were you able to recover your arrows?

Thanks in advance, I need more hunting stories to make it to opening season.
