Up until this year 70#s. I dropped to 60#s this year. Took 1 Buffalo, 1 Buck, 1 Doe, 1 Wild Hog-all pass throughs.
I like a bow I can pull with no problems sitting down-just point-pull, shoot.
Well done. How big was that buffalo? I'd like to drop that much meat at once.

I shoot at 190#'s. Been trying to cut back, but dang, I like to eat.

Ive thought for a whike that extreme1 was the man (hunting in that deep freeze) but your 190#.

I was shooting 63lbs with fingers on the old bear panther. Recently went and bought a Hoyt Ultrasport. Pulled it at 60 first time and had the shop turn it down to 55lbs. First time shooting a release and pulling differently.Shot about 24 arrows. Last 3 over exerted myself and I have been sore for 9 days. Taking 2000mg motrin a day plus muscle relaxant at night and still have some pain. I will have them go down to 50lbs next session and work up. Injured the shoulder years ago and thought it was all better. Now I'm thinking of seeing the Doc this week for something cause I think the rotator cuff is torn.

29 1/4" draw at 78# - Can't really go much higher, due to arrows being underspined. Stiffer arrows are generally heavier and I'd lose speed, so I'm pretty much maxxed out.
