My bow is finally here!

Well I'm glad you were finally able to get one! Great set up you've got there.
Nah, it's not because the bow is new, but it is because YOU'RE new to it. You're using muscles you haven't used before, but you'll build up to it quickly. Back that rascal off as much as you can (if it's a 30-40# bow, you should be able to get it down to around 27 or 8 ) and shoot it there for a while. Steadily build up to where you want to be. You'll be surprised at how quickly that happens.

Congratulations on the new bow. I would recommend just keep practicing at pulling the bow back as often as you can. The muscles will develop the more and more you pull it back. Have fun!

You should be able to drop it down lower than 30 for starters.Im sureit depends on the bow, but I saw a 60-70lb limbHoyt droppped down and shot at 48lbs.Everyone is right though, once you get it back that first time, you will be able to crank it up in no time with some practice.

Please keep an arrow nocked and pointed safely down range while you practice drawing. You don't want to experience a dry fire. FYI, if you want to put a pretty wooden grip on it contact Bowtech/Diamond. I had an '05 Diamond Victory That I changed out the grip on. It was much more comfortable and looked lots better.
My wife had trouble at first drawing her 40lb alpine bow. In a couple of weeks she was doing fine.
