100 lb. pull Bowtech Samson. WOW!
 
I was at the archery shop today and a guy was shooting a 100 lb. draw weight Bowtech Samson. I wish I knew what that guy eats for breakfast.......when he drew the bow, it looked like he was pulling 40 lb. He said the KE was 118. He shot a Bear and deer with it so far with it. Needless to say he blew through them!

Good Luck!

Were you at the shop just off Division in St. Cloud by Waite Park? Is that place still there? I used to do some video shoots there to get ready for the season.

100 pounds, incredible! With my crappy shoulder I' m pushing it when I shoot 60 pounds.

Did you have any luck at Ripley? I went the first hunt and saw nothing but does and turkeys. My buddy filled his extra doe tag.

By friend shoots 90 like nothing, and he is RIPPED. I wonder how he would do at 100? That is crazy.

60 will get er done but if you can handle more my hats off..........anything to help not wound them is a benefit not just hi tech crap.[:-]

Shooting a 100lb draw weight bow inside an archery shop in a T-shirt, is very different than shooting that same bow out of a treestand at the end of November while you were sitting in that stand for 5 hours and the temps are 34 degrees!!;)

I have to admit that I would be hard pressed to draw that puppy back. Though, a month or so back I had the opportunity to draw back a 94 lb PSE Nova with Vector wheels and did not have much of a problem (see maytom' s post above though). But there is a big difference between those vector wheel and the Bowtech single cam....:D

That is some serious weight, my elbow is not real good right now, I wouldn' t dream of going over the 70 I am pulling now.

If you work up to it, it' s not that bad. It' s all about conditioning.

My last bow was a PSE Fire-Flite Elite with 100lb limbs. I was shooting it up until last month. When I would start practicing for the season I' d start at 85lb and then add a couple pounds every couple weeks until I was at the bows peak weight.
