Well I have been trying to work on my form, and trying to adjust tothe new bow. I had it maxed out at 70lbs, but I found that when fully drawn i couldnt hold it very steady and my form was all cramped feeling, and was wearing out really fast while shooting and was starting to get target panic really bad. Well I turned my bow down 2 turns, now it is much more comfortable to shoot. If it was on 70, about how much do you guys think 2 turns would bring it down. I havent had a chance to put it on a scale, but sitting here at work has got me wondering.

I don't know what poundage it is now, but I turned mine down too. I am shooting 55 lbs and that is plenty to bring down a deer, coyote, turkey, hog etc...

I had bad form when I was shooting 70 pounds. It wasn't that I couldn't pull it back, but it wasn't as smooth. I admit it did ding my pride a bit, but missing a deer because I was shaking would more than ding my pride.

3-5 lbs per turn depending on make and model of bow.

Onefull turn on my Hoyt took me from 65 to 62.

It sure is alot smoother and easier to hold..

like dave said 3-5 lbs

LOL sorry to get off topic but 09mjl01 is that a real deer antler on that deer in your avatar.

Your kidding right? [&:]

im kidding LOL

Most of the newer bows will drop roughly 3 lbs per turn on your limb bolts. Therefore, if you were shooting 70 lbs before and took two turns out of each limb bolt you are probably shooting aroung 64 lbs now.
