I weigh around 134lbs and according to your draw weight chart I am supossed to have a bow with a draw weight of 25#-35# but I am confident that I can handle a 65#.So what do you recommend me to do.
If you are capable of pulling 65# get a bow that can shoot that and start practicing. If I were you I’d get a good riser and 2 sets of arms. start with 35 lbs and if you are fine with it upgrade it.
