I use to shoot 2114 @ 29.5" out of a 48 and 49 lb Hoyt. The spine would be weak if I put a 160 grains up front. I don't have the bows anymore just a bunch of 14's.

Yup, 2114 and Jacks bows were 54# and 58#. That said don't believe he had a very long draw, about 28" in his heyday. Here is a picture of Jack shooting one of his Gamemasters. For a time he was one of the top NFAA shooters until he developed target panic.

I have a bow that loves the 2114, just hard to come by sometimes.
