Everyone thanks for all the advice.

Double Creek I agree that might be pushing it, I don't know if I will be ready or not for 2007. I will not take the chance of wounding a animal at all. I took a friend 3 years ago elk hunting.He hunted with his fathers recurve, he did it in memory of his father but it ended up costing him with two misses on bulls. Both were under 20 yard shots, one from a tree stand the other I called into him. I was just thankful that we didn't have wounded bull on our hands.

bigcountry, I will not passthis chanceup, I just don't know what poundage to go with? I have not shot fingers in many, many years. In factit was only myfirst two years of bowhunting (89 and 90) thatI did shoot fingers. In 1991 I bought a brand new bow (Golden Eagle Formul 3-D, I still have it) all set up with a new release and bow case. Its fuuny now looking back and thinking that was the cream of the crop, best of the best equipment never to be outdone. Anyway I am just like a beginner when it comes to shooting with fingers, ifI am lucky maybe I can remember some of what I learned back then. But I am not counting or bettingon it.

kevin1 I agree I don't want to be overbowed at all but I don't want to be underbowed so to speak either. I think bigcountry has a good idea, maybe I'll even ask him what it would cost (including labor)to go ahead and make a second set of limbs for this bow. But lets say I do have one set made at 70 pounds, should I make the other set like 40 to 45 poundsor should it be more like 50 to 55 pounds. If I get so used to shooting 40 or 45 it will still be very hard to jump up to 70 poundscorrect. But if I go from 55 to 70 then is shouldn't be as bad right? I don't know?
