When I first started bowhunting, about 8 years ago I was shooting 72# and I wasn't no spring chicken then. I would practice no problem, shot my first deer about second week of oct
no problem. Sitting in my stand late dec afternoon a buck came in and yes I was excited, brought the bow up started to draw
and the string only moved about a inch. I panicked and kind
of yanked on the string, bullcrap I almost had the bow over my
head and was yanking on it hard. The buck ran off of course
and I have been shooting 60# ever since that day and when
I cant pull 60# smooth in cold weather I will go down to 50
than 40 and so on and so fourth.
