Default RE: What Bow Weight Do You Use?

The best way to see how much weight you can pull is to sit flat on the ground indian style and pull the string back. You should be able to pull the string straight back w/o raising the bow any to help. When you get to the point that you have to raise the bow then back the poundage off 5 pounds. After that you can raise the poundage a little every two or three weeks, depending on how much you practice. As you raise the poundage make sure that you can still do the above.
