:lol: my Chek-Mate Recurve weighs about 2lbs , :D OK OK it draws 58lbs @ 28" .
I am well in the Traditional Bowhunters Dilema which states " You are in deep trouble when your Age exceeds your bow`s poundage"

My T-bolt is 66 lbs. My Durango is 60 lbs. My Sidewinder is 69 lbs. And I ordered my Cougar III with 70 lb limbs, but with 15 lbs of adjustability. I shoot these weights because that is what I find comfortable.

Greybark, I must be in trouble because my age exceed my bow pondage.

Muscles are getting squeeke and sore .MY heart is bionic and my meal is my pills box.But the ol bull is still alive and shooting.

Mine is set at 62lbs....Thats how it came from the Pro-shop and I've had no reason to change it. No problem pulling it and I get plenty of speed.

My Champion Storm is set at 63 lbs. It is the setting that my dealer set it at. It is comfortable to shoot and spits 'em faster than the old stick shooter I had.
