    @Dougie I see you used to have one, how did you find it?
    Nothing is tough about having a 70 lb bow and looking like an uncoordinated praying mantis while trying to draw it back.

    Yo! Yeah I had mine for about three years, I never really looked after it well though so the rear sight has perished now and I also no longer trust the strings from not breaking..

    I’ve shot a few goats with it. Mine arrived in the box at 55lb and I couldn’t pull it back! I enjoyed getting my form up on a lower pull then cranking it back up with more practice.

    I wouldn’t shoot a deer with it.

    I hope this helps!

    She loves the free fresh wind in her hair; Life without care. She's broke but it's oke; that's why the lady is a tramp.

    Thanks. What was you didn't like about it? Is it not accurate enough?

    Not grunty enough for a deer. Also I don’t particularly enjoy watching animals bleed to death. Bunnies and birds are the best for the bow I reckon.
