as stated try a 40 to 45 pound bow
nicer to shoot and less strain
kill any whitetail you shoot at if you do your part

i agree. the old man (rest his sole) was stong as an ox, but not sure why he needed a 60 pounder. i've downed 49 whitetails with a compound, 6 of which made to the wall. but i'm ready to take a step back in time. took i doe with a recurve one evening about 4 years ago. it was 10 below, wat a rush!
