I am finally getting back into archery, especially bow hunting. I had a torn rotator cuff several years ago and had to put my compound away for a long time. I have always wanted to go the traditional route but I couldn't wean myself from the compound. I want to start over fresh with a longbow.
I won't be hunting with it this year, I want a good year of practice before I start flinging arrows at deer.
Let me ask the Council of Elders here on this forum. What do you think the minimum ethical poundage for a longbow should be for deer hunting? My shoulder is better but still not 100%. I'm not looking for 50 yard shots. Even with a compound, I used to keep it inside 30.
Thanks
