Exactly and you working out and getting in the best cardiovascular shape that you can is going to make your hunt much more enjoyeable.. Good luck, I wouldnt change a thing if I were you. The guy here in Idaho that I respect the most as an archery elk hunter has been killing bulls and cows fro 40years and has never shot a bow over 60lbs. The last time I talked to him he had killed 48 elk with his bow. He swears by cut on contact heads and shot placement.. good luck!
