Default How long can you hold it???

I need help. How long should I be able to hold my bow while aiming before I get front arm "fade"? How long have you had to hold on a deer that say looked up at you?
I have a Patriot which to me is very heavy. I am unable to hold my front/bow arm for long <10-15 seconds before it starts to get weak. This is despite alot of practice. I get to where I punch the shot trying to get the shot off prior to the fade.

Do I need to get a lighter bow or just practice more? A lighter bow will "bounce around more" but I won't get the arm fade...I guess. HELP!!!!!!!!
