    @gonetropo Some of the bow's could be set by the user between 5-70 lbs. I have a buggered shoulder and used a xbow for years then picked up one of these adjustable ones and worked up the draw weight according to the pain. It might not be the macho 70lbs everyone pulling but am happy to sneak within 20yds and poke a hole with a 2 blade at 55lbs.

    @RobinHood welcome to the forum mate. What are you shooting with?

    Nothing is tough about having a 70 lb bow and looking like an uncoordinated praying mantis while trying to draw it back.
