Default RE: Most Overlooked Aspect of Bow Tuning?
ORIGINAL: Roskoe

I have had the bow limbs back off to 45 lbs. (the bow is a 50/60)....

At 47 lbs of draw weight (five turns out) the bow produced a 1" group at 20 yards.- but apparently there isa sweet spot at 47 lbs.
A bow that tunes BELOW limb weight? How common is this?

If it is common...then if I want to shoot at 65-70lbs. , which is comfortable for me ...should I be buying 80lb. limbs??? to get the sweet spot?
The sweet spot below recommended weight doesn't seem right? Can anyone explain this?

OR...does an overspined arrow answer the question?
