The bow fits draw lengths from 27-31 inches and features a new parallel limb design with wider limbs and more efficient machined limb pockets. The Execute 32’s revolutionary riser design features a new swing arm cable guard and Shock Management System (SMS), resulting in a dead-in-hand and quiet shot experience.
