Back in my archery days, my buddies and I had a rule. We would not shoot a poundage that we couldn’t manage over a 10 second draw cycle. Theory behind it was, if you’re in a stand, and you’re trying to limit movement to not be detected, a very slow, straight back draw may just be the ticket. These were with older 65% let off bows. I worked my way up to 70# which I shot comfortably for 15 yrs, but in all that time going to the local range, not many could manage the poundage they shot over a 10 second draw.
