Any of you that said 3-5 minutes---how many have ACTUALLY timed it?3 minutes is a VERY long time and 5 minutes is an eternity!JMHO.
AGREED!

I just finished shooting in a league and i had to deal with this alot. My first shot i could hold for as long as 4 minutes, my 60th shot i could hold for all of about 12 seconds.

If it were pointed at my moms face and the only way to save her would be to hold it I could probably hold it along time. If it were at my mother in laws face about 2 seconds.

Yes,I timed myself. I was fine at the three minute mark, started to shake a bit near four, and had to let down by five.

Three minutes isn't that long with a 62# bow with 65% let-off.

This board has way too many skeptics. Just because you can't do something or haven't done something doesn't mean someone else can't or hasn't.
