Default Draw Weight

I know it's been talked about, maybe a few times, but I'm just plain curious. What is your draw weight?

All my compounds are set at 70lbs. My trad bows range from 60 to 68lbs. That is when they stack at my 30" draw.

My Allegiance is set right at 71 pounds.

Not entirely necessary, but I don't mind.

My Bowtech is supposed to only goes up to 60#, but I have it maxed out and the scale reads 61-62. Wish it would go higher...but I'm sure it'll do the job where its at! I've had it for 2 years and am yet to take a shot at an animal with it!
