Don't get hung up on speeds, I shouldn't have even mentioned it but you will see a lot of people mentioning it. It is more important that the bow fit you properly, that you feel confident with it and you practice and stay in your comfort range. My Oasis is a 40-50 pound and set at 45 pounds with 27" draw I shoot around 213 fps with my target arrows. My hunting bow shoots about 240 (but it is 53 pounds) and actually a slightly lighter arrow. If you are 65 pounds then you should have enough speed/energy for a hunting bow. The Oasis is a very nice bow so if you like it then there is nothing wrong with it. I was talking to a buddy a bit ago who has an Oasis and he said he got his for $250 used and considered it a real good deal. He also said if you take the grip off the date is stamped in the riser. Don't know if the owner would like you taking the grip off or not but there is that way to see exactly what year it is. Good luck and if you have any other questions feel free to either post here or e-mail me.
