Dang GMMAT... you're setting your sights awfully low. 60's???? I'm 64 and still enjoy bowhunting. I hope to be doing it until I'm 80s. Should I not beable to do so it'll be alright. I'm about at the point in life I really don't care if I shoot any more deer. I'd still like one to eat on during the year, but I've killed my share and have the memories forever. I have nephews that'll get me some deermeat if need be, or I'll go to the gun or whatever to get my meat.

Farm, what weight is your bow. You know a modern 50 pound bow will kill a bunch of deer. I'm pulling close to 70s and dropped 10 pounds when I bought my last bow. Before that I was yanking 76...definitely an overkill in whitetail woods I hunt. If the day comes I can't pull 60-70 I'd have no problem dropping to 50-60.
My bow is now set at 56# and has 65% letoff. I'm good this year. Just thinking about the future.
