I have pics available for anyone that wants one or you can view it over on Archerytalk, I can' t post it here because they only allow very small pics I guess and mine doesn' t fit. Too bad, they' re awesome bows and it would make a nice pic for here! E-mail me anytime with questions.. Good shooting, Pinwheel 12

Frank-
Thanks! Goes to show I know more about bows than computers, eh?![Wink](https://www.huntingnet.com/forum/images/smilies/wink.gif)
All--
The bow is obviously different than the Max 2000 in asthetics, but the geometry is different also, it has a slightly higher shelf and grip area which provides a much better balance. It is also offered with the new Rapid 2 twin cam which is smoother and yet faster than the original Rapid cam. AND, it is offered with the new Omega Hybrid cam, which offers the best attributes of both the CPS and cam and a half systems.
Specs--
Max 3000 w/Rapid 2 cam
ATA 40" or 41.25"
Brace height 7" or 7.75"
IBO speeds (estimated) 305 and 295
Max 3000 with Omega Hybrid cam
ATA 40" ONLY
Brace height approx 7.5"
65% and 75% letoff options
No IBO speeds yet
Max 3000 with T-wheels
ATA 41.25" ONLY
brace height 7 5/8"
IBO (estimated) 280
While I' m at it, New Lite Storm 2 specs as well--
Lite Storm 2 with Rapid 2 cam
ATA 37"
Brace height 6.25"
IBO speed (estimated) 318+
Lite Storm 2 with Omega Hybrid cam
ATA 37"
Brace 7"
No IBO speed yet
65% and 75% options
MSRP is $748 for Max 3000 Carbon with Twin cams
MSRP is $643 for Max 3000 Glass with Twin cams
MSRP is $30 more for either with Omega Hybrid cam
MSRP pricing is the same for the Lite Storm 2 also. Retail pricing will vary depending upon the area of the USA or Country in which purchased, and individual dealers' percentages of markup.
Many options, many bows, something for everyone. Good shooting! Pinwheel 12
