Draw weight for a newbie
In my studying I have learned that a bow can be dialed down in draw weight from 70 lb. max to 60,61,62 etc... but it is most efficient dialed all the way up. I know I am strong enough toshoot a 70 pounder but as a newbie I would think I should learn and develop proper forrn and acccuracy with a lighter bow. What do you guys think of buying a 70 pounder but setting it in the low sixties and down the road retuning it to 70, is this a bad idea? Also what is the effective range of a 60 vs 70 pounder for a decent sized white tail? That would be the big plus of a 70 vs. 60 for me more effective range plus bigger game. The bow I have in mind is a Diamond Rapture at a 28 inch draw and 70 lb. draw weight orderd from Huntersfriend.com at 60 lbs. Thanks.
