I completely agree with the pro shops input.
Does that make me a pro?
Really, I wouldn't change a thing. I plan on being at 60 lbs before hunting season rolls around, currently at 50 lbs. on a 60-70 lb set oflimbs.
Is it probably stupid? Yeah.
Is it my fault? No.
He sold me the bow. Told me it fit me fine!
This was my first bow, couldn't pull the bow back at 55 or 60 lbs. He backed it down to 50 lbs.
My local pro shop told me it was fine so I am riding on his opinion not necessarily what I think is right.
So that brings me back to my question, does that make me a pro?
In the end, do what you feel comfortable with. Not what that 80 pound tough guy is drawing back next to ya.
