While I respect what the others are saying about not being overbowed, don't get spooked to quickly on this. You've been shooting wheelbows so you have some "bow" muscles, even if just a bit different. 56-58# is a decent pull, but not unmanageable if you are in good shape. Just don't try to shoot 100 arrows right off. Keep working form on your lighter bow and work into the Hunter. It's a classic, and sounds like a sweet deal.

Congrats on the new to you bow!!!
Keep on shooting that lighter bow but I would also pick up that heavier bow everyday and just draw it 10 times or so. Before you know it you will be out shooting it a couple times a week.

I feel like I'm using the same muscles while drawing, but the big difference is when I get to the spot where my compounds roll over to the let up(65%). This is where I have to really concentrate on keeping my head still. I'm working on holding at full draw to get the ole muscles used to this part.I never really had to work at this part of shooting until now.
Thanks for the Congrats.
