might be alittle too heavy on draw weight,might go down to 60# but hard to say...I would think that if she has never shot a bow you should get something around the 60# area.
Or else have her work out and build up the neck,arm and shoulder mussels,you can do alot of damage trying to draw a heavy bow.
Standing you should be able to hold the bow streight out and draw back without having to lift the bow up or down.Should be a smooth pull streight back with no strain.....
just my own .02 cents.............

Your welcome(that cost another .02)64# is were I had my Mathews set at.
be carefull not to go lower the 60#,limb bolts might give out,call the Mfg on the bow to see how far down you can go..looks like you might be able to adjust the letoff too.

TX, you're expecting too much from your wife. My Ultra Tech is at 53 lbs and I just ordered a new Hoyt Vulcan in 50/60 lb. She neither needs that much nor will she be able to shoot it and have fun. Well unless she has lots of hair on her back and her name is Bubba but I suspect that she is neither even though she married you! LOL!!!! On a serious note. A woman is probably better suited to around 50 or so and women usually have a smaller draw length(narrow shoulders). Twenty-nine inches is tons. Now, Tx is this for you when she finds out she can't shoot it? LOL!

Like Ranger mentioned, I feel the poundage is a little muchfor her, but nevertheless good looking bow!
Hey Tex, teach her how to shoot it like an Apache......Horizontal....
