Compounds became too easy, which was the reason I went to a Brackenbury.
Unfortunately I don't bowhunt much anymroe, but the Brack brought back the fun.
Almost anything gets boring if you know you'll have no problems when the moment comes. Its not interesting as much if there is no chance of failure.
That being said due to injuries to my neck/shoulder I generally hunt with rifles now. Plus it takes a lot less time to rifle hunt and a lot less work and prep work and I have less time than I used to. Maybe in 10 years I'll retire and figure a way to get back to the bow regularly.
FWIW my Brack was 56 pounds at my draw... plenty enough, but not nearly too much.... Having killed more than a few things with a kind of homemade recurve that was 45 pounds, the weight is not that big of a deal with deer size animals.. COC head and life stays good.
