There is no magic number, 45 to whatever will all get the job done. Manufactures settled on even numbers in ten pound increments for whatever reason.
Archery is no different then rifle we Americans love power even at the cost of accuracy. Bigger is always better is the mentality.
I remember the days of 100lb draws, I was a range rat at my local archery shop. I use to laugh at the guys buying new compounds. Back then 50-65% let-off was the norm. Guys were buying bows they could only pull back a handful of times. You could tell them till you were blue in the face its too much weight. They had to have it. With advancements in bow technology the weight of those days is long gone, but the mentality is still strong.
