Thats why I dropped down to 60 lbs. Went hunting when it was 10 degrees one morning and couldn't get the bow drawn back on a doe. After that I said screw it, 60 lbs is fast enough.Comment

getting older I mean smarter has it's advantages..
60 for a few years now.
Today's 60 was yesterdays 80 in bow terms.
Today's bows are so efficient. Shooting over 300 with 60-no brainer.Comment

Skydrawing a 70 lb bow at any temp is useless. Save the display of ones manliness for the target range.

I regularly stretch on stand(not for every living creature to see). Helps keep the blood flowing,etc. When it's GO time, then let 'em have it. You should definitely practice in the conditions you will be hunting!Comment

I used to shoot 68lbs. I got sick of the struggle and began to accept that anything I hunt can be killed with 50lbs. I now shoot 55lbs and I shoot better than ever.Comment
