It doesn't need to be a heavy draw weight to be fun, I started with a 38# bow and I'm now using a 75# English Longbow! I was hooked and still use the lighter bows for latter in the day.

Have you ever shot off the knuckle or do you have an arrow shelf on your bow, I've pretty much went from a fiberglass bow to ALL wooden traditional equipment...so I'm not even sure if you can get a modern bow without a shelf.

Peace,
