Default RE: 60lb pull good or go bigger?

Is 60lb enough yes BUT only if you can draw it with ease & then hold your draw for 5 to 15 seconds.
I don't know how many hunters try to work with more draw weight than they can draw easly.
If you can do it easly then try it from a stand it will be diff.
If you can draw 60 lb with ease then try more lb.
I know guys that only draw 50 lb & get their deer every year.
Speed & draw weight are way over rated.
People are trying to do bigger & bigger to off set lack of skill (practice)
and not having bow set up right & tuned for aroww there their using.

Not just shooting off here used to work in a shop & saw this all the time .
If we could get guys turned down to a weight they draw easy & tuned there bow to it they never looked back.
