Am I underbowed?
...if that's the right term
Anyway, I feel like I am but don't want to crank up the poundage just to find myself overbowed in the woods. I'm a superfly weight guy at 120lbs and shoot a 60# Hoyt. Shooting in my yardeven in the cold,I can do it for hours at a time without strain. I'm a righty but can draw my bow without a great dealof difficulty using my left. (just to give you a better idea of where I am with this bow)
I read somewhere that if you can sit cross-legged on the floor with your back straight up and point your bow straight forward then pull straight back slowly and smoothly, chances are you're not overdrawn. I can do this with ease. In fact, I feel like I can probably add another 10#'s and still be fine. However, when you're all bundled up and been sitting in the freezing cold for hours, it's a different story.
I don't want to sell myself short and not pull the optimal poundage. At the same time I haven't been hunting long enough to know where to draw the line and stop cranking the allens on the limbs. I know it's a difficult question to answer but how do you guys gauge what's too little or too much weight? Any input is appreciated.
