80 pound draw is crazy man why so high??? the few FPS your adding by cranking up that high really isnt worth the added discomfort exspecially if you have to hold at full draw for a while.

what are you hunting? if it is whitetails, i agree with Alpine... too high. I have mine set at 60 and that is plenty for what we do in MN. The bows now days are so fast and flat that the extra draw weight is not really used, unless you are shooting very long ranges, or really big animals.

Shot a Bow Tech Admiral yesterday at the pro shop. Damn that was nice! Thinking that will be next bow. Closer to $800 though.
