I shoot 62 pounds for whitetails... been passin' clear through with mechanical heads since about 1997. A properly tuned bow makes all the difference for me. I used to pull more poundage, but it's really not required.

I shoot 65 but you should do a draw weight that you can pull with your warm hunting cloths on and that you can pull in many positions, you'll be suprised how you have to draw.
