RE: How lite is too.....
That' s true. Bows do perform better and shoot quieter the nearer their max draw weight you get. It' s not necessarily true that bows perform best when the limb bolts are cranked down tighter than a pair of pantyhose. Some bows do, some don' t and anyway, pretty often you have to keep one limb bolt backed off a bit to get the tiller set right.
If you' re at 6 1/2 grains per pound now and haven' t had any problems, I doubt you' d need to back off the draw weight due to arrow weight. (Maybe those kids of yours are wearing you down, costing you sleep and sapping your strength?
).

RE: How lite is too.....
How could one who is starting to drive, one hitting the " 13" mark and one coming into the terrible twos (not to mention a pregnant wife) drain a man' s energy????
Seriously, thanks for your help. I was shooting about the same weight in aluminums for the last few years and made the switch to carbon this winter. Seems to do ok, and like I said I have been very happy with it over the years.
I do plan to change my set up this fall for hunting, just was wanting to get the maximum speed for the 3D and field courses.
Thanks again
