[QUOTE="scottyboy, post: 1331857, member: 91491"] i was wondering if there was a way to estimate the effective range for a given draw weight? For the sake of discussion, let's assume I can hit where I am aiming at any distance (this is not true of course, just saying let's not take it into consideration). So if I have a 29" draw and turn my bow down to 60lbs, what would be a estimate for effective range on a deer? I have always shot my bow at 70, but some recent shoulder injuries are making it very difficult to pull and hold 70, so I'm turning it down to 60. I'm just curious what my limit will be, again with the assumption my arrow flies true, on a deer sized target. I've searched around and cannot seem to find a general way of calculating this. I'm shooting a Mathews chill r at 29" if that matters. Appreciate any thoughts on this. [/QUOTE]
