So, I'm pretty happy with the choice I made for my starter bow. PSE Blackhawk TD #45lbs.
The only thing is that it shoots flat only out to about 15 yards. After that it becomes a pretty arched trajectory. Being brand new to this and this being my first bow, I don't have anything to compare to. Does this sound normal?
Would increased draw weight in the same bow relate directly to increased FPS? I could easily handle more weight, probably a good bit more. I'd like something that is flat out to further yardage.
In any case, I'll hang on to the PSE for learning and easy practice. Just got rid of the flipper rest and am shooting off the shelf and loving it.
As I search ebay and other places it looks like entry level ($ wise anyway) production recurves don't go much beyond 55lbs. Is 60 or 70lbs really rare?
