Me to at 68 I can't hold the conquest 3 I had almost cried when I sold that one but it has a good home course I can't hold the Excal up either but I can put a prop under it. You aren't gonna change the hard core anti's I have sadly just left them to their own designs but I have quit supporting a lot of their functions. I still shoot my 38 lb. longbow Imade it myself in the barn tbat was another thing I noticed when I quit buying their bows and equipment the boys in the booths weren't nearly so friendly so they do have an agenda well beyond hunting
