Crikey Jeff, I didn't want to hear this.. I wouldn't say the Elite is "easy" to draw, just "easier" than the rest of the hybrids I shot.
My 82nd has been turned down to 57# (60# limbs on her) here she smokes 354 grains/27.5" arrows @ 295fps, the fastest 57# bow I've owned...but I've paid the price. NeverthelessI hear ya on backing it off, but I was reallyreluctant doing this during the season as then it meant resighting the pins, fiddling with the tuning a tad, maybe even shifting my peep and resquaring my d-loop. Honestly The bow was too much on than to go start trouble in the prime of the season. Towards the end I reverted to the Guardian...then it seemed forever for the arrow to hit the target.
The reality is, it takes poundage to generate real speed...obviously I can't have my cake and eat it too.

Good luck tuning your baby...would respectfullyappreciate to hear howshe settles in after the run in.
