Default lightweight bows

Yesterday I wached Spirit of the Wild and Ted's son Toby killed a moose with a nuge bow set at 50 lb With a slow moving 500 grain arrow, and to beat all the moose died in 40 yards! I think this really shows that we should shoot a bow that is confortable. There are a lot of guys that posted on this forum that they injured themselves because they are pulling 70 80lb bows when they don't need them. Whey do people do this?

The answer is very simple, along with a lot of minds. This is America where bigger is better. More is always better. And of course, we are indestructible until we get into our 50's.
