Man, those bow only counties would be so cool to hunt! I wish there was some public land down that way

As far as the record books............... If i happen to get lucky enough to take a deer with large enough antlers to qualify, i'd do it. But it's not a real priority.

Higher let-off makes for lower speeds but it is easier to hold at anchor so you are a tad more accurate.

For release shooting I prefer 80%, and actually Binary Cams are faster set at 80% than they are at 65%.

If I was going to try to finger shoot again I would opt for the lower letoff.

Being a target shooter I'd take 65% any day but more for hunting.
