Last year I had problems with my bow shoulder stabbing pains almost every time I pulled back. Purchased a crossbow for the season just to stay in the game. This year I shot my Z7 at 52 pounds without much trouble even turned it up to 54 with 28" draw at 272 shot my best buck (a 125 class whitetail nothing major I assure you) to date and I think I harvested 6 more along with it. Thinking seriously about buying a new bow and keeping the crossbow as back up. Surgery would probably put me out of both games for a while.
Glad to see your still at it AH64.
I think I just need to keep practicing with less break time between shots.
Good luck and shoot straight y'all
