Default RE: help with a shooting problem

Probably, if it were me that's what I'd do. But before you buy again you should do a whole lot of homework. By that I basically mean finding out what size should fit you. You are not going to find this out at WalMart or KMart.

I know some of us sound like a broken record, but go to a good pro-shop to get fitted up. AH HA, now how do you know a good pro-shop from a not-so-good one? Well, for starters we've already told you about that your drawlength should be so part of the job is done. Look for bows that have an adjustable drawlength module or at least one that you can change mods to adjust the draw. A couple that come to mind are Martin, Hoyt, Reflex, Parker, Darton. There are others.

If I recall some of the posts you also have an issue with a 70 pound bow, correct? Well, let me tell ya something , son. Todays bow are much more efficient than 30 years ago and we killed lots of deer with 50-55 pound bows back then. Today 60# will take care of anything walking in North America. However, once you get a bow fitted close to your optimum drawlength you may find that 70# will draw easier. And there is nothing wrong with turning one down to 65# if it matters.
