So, yesterday, it hit me. I need to get rid of my Menace; I need a new bow. So I've been searching on the web for good ones. Anyway, I'm chilling inside with my dad, watching TV. Then I told him that I need a new bow. We decided we'd offer it to my "protege" and put it up for sale after this weekend's hunt. As we're saying this I tell him I'm maxed out (~52lb) and then it hits me. I may be able to pull my dad's! So i bring it down, he cranks it down, and i "easily" pull it back. Of course, he's 29" draw and I'm 28", so I can't use his bow. Then he cranks the bow back up. "This doesn't feel like 70lb..." he says. I try again, and with a miniscule amount of difficulty, i pull back the ~66lb!!
WHOOOP TI DOOOOO!!!!!!!!!!!
Lol so this is also a pre-ad for my 2010 Mission Menace.

I remember that moment for me as well, the first time I pulled dad's back. It was a bit different for me, as I was older and he had been dead for awhile, but memorable nonetheless.
Congrats; stay of the juice!

Get a crossbow then you can pull it back with both hands.

are you cutting wind when you pull back? Meaning? I can PULL this. I can't really SHOOT yet lmao. Went to the pro shop yesterday and pulled a Mission Ballistic 70lb 28" right off of the rack. Hard, but i did it. My back hurt afterwards  I know that I can pull 60-63lb without a problem.
