It is not for me but I do have questions#1. Is it like a double shotgun with the option to fire 1 then the other or does it fire both at the same time. The vedio did not explain that.#2 is the 360 lb draw weight just 180 for each limb added together. #3 can you just cock 1 limb and shoot? #4 how do you cock it? # 5 cam you fire Both simultaneously? #6 does it have a. Rank cocking system for us old guys?
I would decently like to see one and play with it but not for me at that price and after having a Ravin with the narrow draw I would NOT EVER want something that wide again.

If I was going Kodiak bear hunting maybe. Going after the big five in Africa? But if I was doing those hunts I would have something that goes bang.
I question how much it takes to get them to hit close to the same spot. I would think a lot of range time.

At $2200 I'm not interested either, (but even if I were) I wonder if it's legal to use in Indiana in 2021?

not a chance I buy one. Trying to solve a problem which did not exist.
I miss when they just made simple "medium speed 350FPS" quality bows. I guess you have to 'launch' new models each year to stay relevant these days

Price is one consideration and inevitable red tape being a bigger one. By the current law such a thing is not illegal, unless I'm missing something. I doubt anyone foresaw such a contrivance.
As a new way to sling projectiles it is certainly interesting.
Watching the review it looks like it's not intended for both to fire simultaneously. However, it also seems to me some of your handier types could engineer a way to connect both triggers in such a way that when you squeeze the front trigger, the back is depressed as well.
