How many pounds do you hunt with?

So how many pounds do you guys like to pull whenhunting?
For me 70# at max, it can get cold where i hunt, and alot of clothes makes that even difficult to pull back.

70#.

Question; Whats with all the polls?

I think seeing the percentages shows a more clear answer, and its pretty intersting imo to see how some people hunt.
Not to mention alot more people like to vote rather than leave a reply,so you get a ton more answers this way. Alsoi know theres alot of educated and experinced bow hunters here, and i really do take there advice seriously and try to match how they hunt.Im not just thinking of random questions, these are things im going to do to my bow.
In fact i never do anything to my bow, with out checkin here first, or looking at reviews.

65 pound for me this will take down any deer I ever seen or heard of and is plenty fast.

With the bow I've got now, in early season it's 50lbs. Later in the season with heavy clothes on, I crank it down to 45.
