GT, as long as your string is the same length as factory, you should still be where you were until it creeps a little. Average twists in a string are usually 15 (if I remember correctly) as a starting point, then put a couple more in it if it creeps.

also depends on how long you can hold it back.you might be able to be able to pull back 90#,but if you cant hold it but but 30 seconds,you have to go lower.most of you might have allready known this though

At the moment, I only have a practice bow, since the old man lost his job last sept due to downsizing, so it only goes to 20 lbs. But hopefully soon I can go get me a real one I just hope I can find someone to help me set it up and all that good stuff! Jen

I shoot 60 lbs. My bow is a little bit older and it doesnt have a whole lot of let off like the new bows do. 60 lbs dont sound like much but if the deer turns wrong and messes up your shot while your drawn on him it doesnt take long for my arms to start shaking!!! lol
