Default RE: Allegiance Speeds

I know what you're saying, but I've been shooting 70 lbs all season until I switched over from a caliper-style wrist strap release to the Copper John Eagle 3 finger release. With so much of the pressure being placed on my index and ring fingers while drawing my hand starts to get a little tired after a number of shots at the higher draw weight which is why I initially backed the weight down to begin with. Optimally I'd like to get back up to the 70 lb range, but where I feel the most comfortable is where I'll end up hunting. I killed my first deer shooting a touch over 40 lbs out of an old Golden Eagle Predator with round wheels and got 2 complete pass throughs on deer that year so needless to say I'm not worried about penetration with my current setup. As I said - I really couldn't be happier with it. If I screw up any shots this year I certainly can't hold my equipment at fault.
