Default RE: what to do once it gets cold

When I first started bowhunting I missed a couple of
great opportunties at huge bucks. I got busted
both times trying to get to fulldraw, my bow was
turned up higher than I could handle and it was all
I could do to get it back....I learned my lesson and
paid a very high price. Experience and advice from
a long time bowhunter taught me two things:

1. If I can' t stay at fulldraw comfortably for 30
seconds, I' m pulling too much poundage.

2. During cold weather(below freezing), turn
the bow down 5-10 lbs.

If you can' t get to fulldraw smoothly...[:@][][:' (].
