The rifles thread made me curious.

What does your hunting bow weigh all ready to go? List multiples if you use them...

Just weighed mine.

PSE Drive LT
MBG Ascent Ambush
8" 3 oz stab
QAD drop away
Tightspot with three 100 gr Vipertricks coming out at 410 grains
The usual sling, D-loop, and silencers....

6 lbs 6 oz



It ain't what you don't know that makes you an idiot...it's what you know for certain, that just ain't so...

Most people don't want to believe the truth~they want the truth to be what they believe.

Stupidity has no average...

I don't know, but they're heavy. I don't shoot light bows well.

It appears you shot that light bow very well.

Thanks...not too hard when they walk by at 10 yards. Most of the time though, I'm hidden in a cactus patch or 20' up a pine tree holding a compound. smile

I'm not sure how much my elite energy 32 weighs. But when checking draw weight the bow will stay at full draw hanging from the scale by itself

Draw weight is set to 66 pounds.

After 45 years of traditional archery, I bought my first compound this year.

Never weighed it but it feels like a large boat anchor compared to my longbow.

My compound Browning is fairly heavy & long but has been very reliable & successful darn near every year for me for the past 20 years.
