Default Whats your dream set-up?

For a bow? What would you have on your bow? What arrows would you shoot? What poundage? What draw length? What arrows? Etc?

Lets hear it?

Lets say you are mainly chasing whitetails, elk, and antelope. Shots out to 40-50-60 yards.

I'm going to wait for a few responses before I post up my setup, cuz I am torn between a few bows. I am getting ideas for what I want to get for my new bow. Sounds like we are going to Montana elk hunting next fall!

I like my current Hoyt - so I would probably stick with them. If I had no plans for elk I would stick with 60 # max poundage, but if elk were a possibility 70# would be my deal. Since I am relatively new to archery, I would want a decently fast, forgiving bow, something like the Hoyt UltraTec. Probably go with some CX 300 carbon expresses, Muzzy 100 grain 3-blade broadheads. As far as a rest goes, indecisive so I'm not gonna offer anything there. Hope this helps!

My current setup unless I decide to buy another new bow. My next bow however will adorne the same accessories except sights, they may change.

Perfect bow specs for me would be:
36" AtoA
7 1/2" brach height
Parallel Limbs
Thin grip
under 4 pounds.

As for accesories, i really like everything i have. Bodoodle Pro lite, Impact cosmic ring, mathers quiver, limb savers, some stabelizer, and thats it. I might try a drop away next year, but i highly doubt it. Carbon arrows over 410 grains(including the 100 grain magnus heads) with 4 inch helical feathers. And my Tru-ball release.
