I'm 6'1" 220lbs and I can pull back 70lbs with no problem. I know Uncle Ted pulls 50lbs. I think the hipe is that you need to pull back as much as possible to where your hemroids burst.
What are you pulling?
Thanks, Jigfish
The weak call it obsession, the strong call it dedication!!!

Was shooting 70# but alas the years and injuries have caught up with me. After shoulder surgery I swapped for 50-60 limbs. Started at the botton and worked my way back up to 60. Never had any pass through problems at 50 though; just didn't like the trajectory and time of flight.

Far better it is to dare mighty things, to win glorious triumphs, even though checkered by failure, than to take rank with those poor spirits who neither enjoy much nor suffer much, b/c they know not victory nor defeat"- #26 TR

70#
I don't have the macho issue but since I pull that weight no problem I might as well shoot it, since my bow will go that high.
I have a buddy who shoots 60# and he kills deer no problem.
For it is not the quarry that we truly seek, but the adventure.
