Right now I'm set on about 72 pounds. That's as high as my bow can go. I don't think it makes a whole lot of difference.

47 is about all I can pull, if I lay off a little while, I have to grunt to do that!

I'm at 70 for bear hunt in two weeks. I only shot 58lbs for deer. Its more important to get the accuracy of the less weight then the extra fps.
