RE: Economical way to start bowhunting?
 
Just got home from work and figured I'd go look. The bow that I have now is a Herter's Perfection Kiowa 60" I believe. If that doesn't sound right then it's probably not it. If I'm going to get one, do I need to factor in a somewhat weak shoulder? Is there a way to work with that? It's my right shoulder and I shoot right right handed.

TIM,
That's a RECURVE, it's doesn't really have a "draw-length" per se, it's probably 60# at 28", thats how they are usually measured, which is a LOAD when you consider 0% let-off, and it only gets worse if you're trying to draw it back to 30-31" which is what I draw on a recurve!!!!
