How easy is it to change the draw weight?

Very easy. you need only an allen wrench for the adjustment. You must adjust each end the exact same amount.

Everything about this bow is simple. I'd do all your changes inside b/c there are small screws but, setting the adjustment is simple. The bow shoots phenomenally and it's very quiet and quicker than bows twice the price. It's a little heavy but, not an issue for anyone over 150lbs really. My wife has one as well in pink Camo and loves it!

My Shield had an 8 lb+ trigger pull and after installation it was about 5.5 lbs. I think because of the parts replaced, the final result should be the same no matter what the pull weight is at the start. I have limited experience with gun mechanics but I installed my own kit, albeit, slowly. You Tube has numerous videos of amateurs installing this kit - I watched several before I picked one... David's advice to check with a gunsmith is always good advice.

Leo13gto, the weight is easily adjustable. You can change it with a standard screwdriver and a trip to your local hardware store to buy a compatible weight bolt (cost probably less than $1.00 USD) which is pretty common in most places, just have to match the flat head and threading size.

My advise is to go to a range where they rent bows. Have him try out a few of those to see what his ideal draw weight would be. He would need something that isn't so light that it's too easy, unless he is just starting to learn. Also he would need something that isn't too hard to pull. But starting out at 40 is a bad idea.

Not sure but be careful because the arrow can spinter if the draw weight is too heavy. Does that make sense? Mine is only 32 lbs

No, there is no adjustment. It has a slight to it. Already but for a cross draw I wouldn't recommend it. Hope this helps

Honestly no, the bow has a 50 lb draw and can take some getting used to. It is not the easiest to learn too shoot with, accuracy is based more off your reactions rather than sighting in the target. It was good for introducing my girl friend to bows but she quickly decided to get one more tailored to her. I hope this helps.

IT was fairly easy... just be sure you have the legs and draw going in the right direction. I had to redo it but even with that it didn't take much time at all. I love it Looks great

Yes. For an inside the belt holster it is pretty easy. The holster part is made of heavy plastic so it does not collapse against your waist when you pull the gun.

I don't know how consistent the draw weight is set out of the box. My bow was around 58lbs. Be sure to get it tuned. The cams were slightly out of sync. It's a great bow. Can't wait for the deer to cooperate enough for me to use it!

I suspect it depends on the draw poundage you have it set to. I can pull it with just my fingers at 42# without fussing but haven't tried shooting it that way.

It is easy to change blades. Just undo the Allen bolts. I suggest getting a professional to sharpen the blade.

Depends on his build and strength. Suggest you ask whoever gives him lessons... if they are not available, take him to a Bow shop and have them make a suggestion on draw weight. It is better to err on the side of getting a lighter draw rather than a draw that is too heavy.

I find it very easy, I change blade width and teeth number quite frequently. All you need is enough light to see the bottom attachment.

not hard at all. If you can change a car tire you can do it. Plenty of instructions and videos online. I've never worked on them before and now I've completely disassembled it and put it back together easily. I went WAY beyond what is required to swap the bolt action.

I have never tried to, but I believe that your can. It will be a reverse draw though if you're right hand dominant. Unless you make your own sheath which is what I did.
