I to am only 14 years old but I can pull 70#. The only reasonI pull a 30# because it is light butperfect for small game hunting and compact, which I want. It's only 50" long but is made of fiberglass, but I covered it with brown tee-shirt straps for limbskins (pretty sad). Some people I know that never shot a bow or never ownedone, have said that my bow, and other 30-35# bows are Panzi, or weak and not lethal. But I say it is lethal, and shure can kill small animals and humans. I say as long as a bow can kill, it is not panzi. What do you guys think?
