I'm shooting 45# for hunting (mostly bunnies for now) and target. I thought about moving up, but want to really get comfortable with one bow. I can shoot 45# a lot more, and more often, than a higher so I'll just enjoy that for now.

My observations:
8 out of 10 bows I sell are between 44# and 53# @ 28". 8 out of 10 people that I check their draw length in my shop while shooting (not holding) draw 27" or less. Average age of my customers is about mid 40s I'd say.
Anyway I hunt with 48# at 26.5" but shoot all bows I build a hundred times or so before sending them out. The 71#er I built last month took it's toll on me. I only shot it about 25 times.
