Decent deal. Looked at these but I went with a Diamond by bowtech instead. Just know that on all these cheap, entry level bows you will want to get a different sight. The ones they come with are usually terrible.

it's a heavy duty hunting bow and not for beginners or target shooting. These are slow sellers as even deer hunters prefer lighter around 40-50lbs. Fun sport with shooting targets. I shoot traditional recurve and with practice 3+ x a week for 3-4 months, you will be happy to become somewhat proficient. At some point you might want to shoot compound, but I tried it and happier with my recurve Samick Sage and Galaxy bows. Both are inexpensive ($150+) but the quality and performance is excellent.

i think you're misinformed or my area of the country is wildly different than yours.

I've bow hunted whitetail in Appalachia for 20 years and my father had bowhunted for 40+ years before he passed. My father in law bowhunts. Many of my friends and co-workers do too. I don't know a single capable adult male who doesn't shoot 70lb draw weight. I know many women and teens who shoot 50-60lb draw weight.

Most of these bows, including this one, have adjustable draw length and weight. Here's an excerpt from the Amazon listing:

TAILORED FIT: Adjustable draw length range of 23.5 to 30.5 inches and draw weight options from 45-60 to 55-70 pounds provide a personalized fit for all archers.

should be adjustable down to 40 or 50 pound draw weight don't you think

Sorry to be a Debbie downer, but sounds like there are a lot of bow hunting noobs here. If you don't know anything about archery, then go to a pro shop. Whatever money you save on buying a bow on Amazon that you don't know anything about, you'll lose by having it professionally set up at a pro shop. You need to have the bow set up for your draw length and your strength. A lot of people don't have the shoulder strength to draw a 70 pound bow, especially if you've had a prior injury. 60 to 65 is the sweet spot for most people. I draw 70 pounds myself, but most people don't - regardless of whatever the retired linebacker above said.

Sounds like there are a lot of weak bow hunters looking to bag a buck. At 17, my first compound was a 60# 29.5" draw. If you're a grown man and can't pull a 70# string, put down both the beer bottle and the bow. Pick up a rifle instead. The deer deserves that much at the very least.
