65# here. That's still probably overkill with today's bows.

65 lbs, give or take a couple lbs. With that weight, I still have no problem drawing when the temps are around 0.

My old '96 PSE Edge (dual cam) is set to +/- 65# and a 30" draw length. It's rugged and reliable and still a great shooter.

63 pounds here.

At one time shot at 80 and nearly destroyed the rotator cuff and the elbow. At 63 I don't hurt, can shhot 80-100 arrows in a day and can still draw the bow while hunting in the coldest conditions.
