What pound bow do you hunt with.

I am interested to see what most people use for hunting. Taking into consideration you may be hunting different things, lets keep this in the Whitetail deer size game.

Could a mod make it so the results show all the time?

I must have missed that.

It is 60# for me but as I get older I worry I will not be able to stay there.

After 2 decades of hunting with 58# to 65# bows and dealing with two shoulder surgerys, I've been very happy with 51#-52# bows the last 3 years.

Right at 50# for me, although I wouldn't feel underbowed for whitetails at 45#.  

Sharpen those broadheads and pick your spot, makes up for a lot of poundage if you don't do those things.
