My wife (5' tall, about 100#) shoots a Hoyt CE at 24". She used to shoot 50#, but with advancing age is down to 43#. Arrows are FMJ 500 at 25 1/4" with VPA 125 3 blade, unvented, and a 20 gr. outsert. Total arrow weight is 421. She has killed almost every species in CO including elk and a cow moose with complete pass throughs most of the time.

My 11 year old shoots a hoyt Ruckus at 40#and 22” draw. Beaman ICS whiteouts with weed eater string in the shaft. I’ve slept since I weighed her total arrow weight. I’m guessing 350 grain but I’m not sure. Slick trick standards.

I bought old good used bows for my kids. I bought a Ross CR334 for one son and a Diamond Iceman for another son. My third son got one of my Synergys (that one hurt a bit, I love that bow). Might take that one back and give him the Impulse 34 instead.

Karla shoots a Hoyt Trykon, only drawing about 37# on a 40# bow. No worries, blows a 2 blade through every buck she shoots!!

Hard to beat a Mission Craze. Lots of room for adjustment.

Diamond infinite edge

15 to 70 lbs

12 to 30 inches

Can adjust it by yourself on a table with no bow press needed. Just a couple allen wrenches. It is ingenious and shoots well.

My wife, today is about 40#. Hasnt been shooting much the past few years and just getting back to it, hoping to hunt a bit when our season opens in a month.

She draw's 25", shooting an Elite Ice. She's using some sort of Easton arrows I dont remember the model off the top of my head, but with 100grn Magnus Stingers for heads - a set up that's yielded pass through's for her.

My daughter Lexie who passed in 2013 shot a Diamond edge.

I’ve since hunted with it the last few years and it is a very functioning bow.

She pulled around 40# and I’ve hunted with it pulling 46#.

Gets the job done and has meant a lot to tag a few deer with it being she was not afforded the opportunity to do.

Shooting carbon express 29” arrows tipped with 100gr NAP spitfires with cut on contact tip (bladed/not chiseled)

I'm not a kid or a woman, but as an example, at 57 w/health issues I am currently shooting the same such rigs as I set up 6 children with over the years. I'm shooting a 2016 Bear Escape SD (short draw) 44# @ 26.5". Its pushing a 410gr Easton Powerflight/100gr NBS Musacchia broadhead 240fps. Last season same setup took a large doe at 25yds quartering away, centered a near-side rib, and broke the far-side humerus lodging inside the skin on the far shoulder. If I could still do it, I would feel 100% confident with this same rig on elk as well.
