65% here as well for this year........

Speaking of let-off :Just throwing it out there, has Anyone ever drawn an Oneida where at full draw you can gently rest the lower limb tip on your thigh which takes almost all holding weight off of your arm?........something like 98% let-off. Then when you are ready to shoot simply lift the bow to position and it takes the weight back up..... If you ever get a chance to play with one try it it' s pretty cool and perfect for flipping out the bow shop owner.

65% for me! When I find a 75% or 80% that draws as smooth as 65% I may try one out.
