PA,

Thats another reason I like my FX so much. With the minimax the 73lb limbs bottom out at around 66-67lbs, I can draw that all day long. But like you have pointed out a lot depends on the draw cycle. That is a good idea about ordering heavy limbs but having gone through a bit with bows to get them just right, I think that I' d want to try the exact bow that I' d be buying. You know measure everything and make sure that it feels right. For instance my minimax 28 comes in @ 28 3/8th AMO which is very close to perfect for me. Although I think the tolerances are getting better they do have slightly different personalities one to another. You know when the bow really fits you right, when the draw cycle and valley and wall suit you and the drawlength it right and the draw weight is pleasant, the bow gets to feeling like it' s part of you. And then for hunting if it is manueverable and is forgiving. Well at that point it isn' t a Mathews or a Hoyt or a Bowtech etc..

It' s your weapon!!!
