I drop down for small game, sometimes.
Generally though I stick with my regular bow because a hog could show up and they are open year round here in Florida.

How are ya Mark?......About all I hunt is small game, deer, and hogs. I shoot bows from 50#'s up to 65#'s.....I shoot a lot of different bows, but I don't change bows for the type of game I'm hunting....It just depends on what I choose to shoot on that particular hunt.

I shoot different weights for different game. Since i have a number of all different kinds of bows, I like to let em perform as they were ment to; I feel like I should honor em for what they are, and use em for their intended purpose, instead of having them languish on their racks on the wall as keepsakes. i even occasionally shoot my bows made and signed by Glenn St.Charles and Bill Stewert, two of the finest bowyers in the Northwest. sourowl

Same bow weight and same arrow weight... Well, kinda. All (lucky me) my bows are 47-50# at my draw of 26". Arrows average 495-525 grains. I think it's a good idea to keep things almost the same. But that's just me.......
