Just doing some research before buying a bow here. What draw weight do you shoot for deer size game and heavy (moose) game?

Around 60 lbs for me. I can draw 70 while I'm practicing, but I discovered that after sitting in a tree for hours at a time I can't draw that much to hunt with. I shoot closer to 45 or 50 for non hunting type stuff.
