Any attempt to draw more weight than you should will result in improper archery form and affect accuracy. Larger women and boys (125-145 lbs) = 45-55 lbsĪlthough these are average drawing weights, it is important to shoot what is comfortable for you.If the poundage seems high (it was tough to pull back and hold) lower the draw weight in 2 lb increments until you have found a comfortable draw weight. I had no clue I should not be shooting such a light arrow out of hat bow. It lasted all of about 100 shots and blew up. It was 90s and I was shooting a 2114 out of it. I shot a PSE FireFlite for a while, a short while.

If you are comfortable with the poundage and can hold full draw comfortably, the poundage is where you need it. My first and only Jennings was an S-Handle, From: Shawn. To find your ideal poundage, sit down on a chair or tailgate of a truck and pull your bow back with your feet off the ground. Try not to roll the cam(s) over, but if you do, make sure you keep a good grip when raising the bow back up to take it off the scale… it’ll try to take you for a ride!
When using a bow scale, hook the string to the scale’s hook at the nocking point and pull down on your bow’s riser until your bow is at it’s “roll over” spot on the cams and look at the scale for its draw weight. Either the compound for the most part, from want of exercise, ertract of colocynth, or the compound when a horse is. If they are not marked, max out the draw weight and your lowest draw weight will be 10 lbs lighter in most cases. Only attempt to shoot draw weights in the limb’s specified range (50-60 lbs, 60-70 lbs). It is one of the finest bows you will find on the market. Repeat this process until you reach your desired draw weight. Jennings Buckmaster Compound Bow Specs The Buckmasters G2 is faster, lighter and quieter than many of todays highly hyped bows that cost 200 to 300 more. Next, unscrew both limb bolts one revolution (360°) and check the poundage on a bow scale. Tighten the limb bolts until the limbs are tight to the riser.įirst, raise the drawing weight to its max. The bow will now be at the maximum poundage and maximum draw weight, ATA measurement, and brace height measurement can be verified.
Jennings published his review in the magazine's May 1967 issue, giving it high marks. To check to see if a bow is in “spec” (at its specified manufacturer’s measurements) tighten (clockwise) the limb bolts until the limbs are against the riser. In the late 1960s, Jennings was technical editor for the old Archery World magazine (now our sister publication, Bowhunting World), and Allen had sent Tom an early prototype of his compound bow to play with and report on. If the limb bolts are unscrewed too much, the limb bolt’s threads can come out of the riser and cause damage to the bow and injure the mechanic.Įvery bow’s limbs have a specific draw weight rating: 50-60, 60-70, 70-80, etc. Safety Precaution: Be careful that you do not unscrew the limb bolts passed the bow’s lowest weight setting. To lower the draw weight we unscrew the limb bolts equally on each limb (counterclockwise).
