Anyware from 50#-to58# @ 27 1/2".Can't shoot the heavy stuff since my 2 spine operations but I have complete confidence with my arrow and broadheads to tackle any thing with those weights.
Quote from Howard Hill.( Whenever he taught someone to shoot) "Son make up your mind right now if you want to target shoot or hunt as theres a world of differance between the two"

52 - 49 lbs at my draw. Works so far.

Running Buck

52-57 lbs works for me. If I go lighter, I can't get a good release. And if I go with more weight my shoulder starts to protest.
