I actually dislike many of the new bows draw cycles.
Yeah they can get good speed from 60# now (instead of running 70#) but it doesn't feel good to these old bones.

72# with Cam and a half Hoyt........is comfy to me. Prefer 65% letoff too.

Don't need the fastest rig out there. I don't compete at 3D. Gave that up some time back. Just hit a course once in a while now, for fun. Trad gear.

I demand a certain feel there too, and why I shoot one brand. Current model is old, slow B50 rig........but I always wanted one. Not as quiet or fast as the ones I had built. But I like it. Makes shooting fun.

And FUN trumps all else IMHO.

Used to buy 2 top end compounds a yr......glad I got out of that mess.
IIRC I've had 30 or so compounds, and as many recurves. Buds have all sorts of old and new rigs, that I get to try out.

Eh, Hoyt cam and a half (loved my Protec except for the weight).
Didn't care for my Mathews SBXT.
Maybe a new Blackwidow PCH sometime...
