What does 10-20lb for the draw weight mean? Standard draw weight is at a certain draw length, such as 28".

The draw weight means the amount of force needed to draw the string to its,maximum draw length which in this case is 28" I do believe. If the draw weight is 20 lbs then i would have to excert the same amount of force on the string as i would need to lift a 20 lbs weight. Or, if i tied a 20 lbs barbell to the string of the bow, and lifted it by the handle of the bow then i would draw the bow to the,max draw length. Basically you'd have to pull with 20 lbs of force on the string to draw the bow fully.

According to the ad you can set the draw between 13 and 30 inches and between 5 and 70 lbs. Mine was set to 65 lbs and 24". If you don't know what you are doing I suggest taking it to a pro to set the bow up. I did that and he worked on it for a bit to get the draw length right. Take the instructions with you, if it isn't a bow they sell and work on regularly they will need to see them. Great bow, easy to shoot.

Just depends on how strong you are but the draw weight is adjustable also. You can adjust the draw weight yourself or most sporting goods stores can do it also for about $5 , maybe a little more. Long as you have it at 40 lbs or more draw weight it is legal to hunt with

20 lbs. Is a heavy spring. It's for 180 gr +P or just Hot Ammo. I think 17 lbs. is what is called for in the 40 S&W Glock 22. It has the stander slide so 20 lbs. might be a bit much unless your issue ammo is HOT like +P ammo. I would not tamper my duty gun unless calling Glock first here. To much at stake here for liability reasons.

Hello Kelly, I have two different bows I had purchased, I believe the bow in question has a 16 lb. draw. I hope this answers your question.

As I recall the draw length is not adjustable. If you are asking about the draw weight, that is not adjustable either.

Adjustable draw weights from 19 lbs to 45 lbs is correct Includes three arrows and bow arrow holder.

It depends on the draw weight. It can be adjusted from somewhere between about 5 to 29 pounds. My sister is thirteen and has it set at about 20. At the lower setting, I could see a five or six year old managing fine.

It is a continuous 40lb draw weight to full draw out to about 31" or a little more. You can decrease draw weight a little if desired.

Hey Dylan, That bow is probable gonna be way to easy for you to draw...and too small also. A fellow your size (as I am also) Should be drawing around 30 to 31 inches in draw length....and at least 50 lbs draw weight....I prefer the solocam bow types...the ones with one eccentric cam pulley and one very round pulley...these are very stable bows and tend to stay in tune better than the twin eccentric cam bows do... Just about any brand name would work fine...Matthews, Hoyt, Browning, PSE, Bear. This little bow isnt exactly a toy but feels like one in my hand. I would recommend a Matthews solocam bow for you.

Hi B. Carter- I shoot a 80lbs draw weight Mongol recurve horsebow and they do just fine for me. I can't speak for heavier draw weights. Hope that helps. Gary C.

It is a real bow and can be set to a draw length of 22/23, the only thing to check is your state requirements for minimum poundage. At that draw length it might not be a high enough poundage to legally hunt.

I'm not real sure what you are asking. I am using a recurve bow with a 25 pound pull with 28 inch arrow. I am not very strong either and having no trouble with the 25 pound pull. I hope this helps you.

I suspect it depends on the draw poundage you have it set to. I can pull it with just my fingers at 42# without fussing but haven't tried shooting it that way.

The draw length can be adjusted from 27-29, so you should be good, but I would get your draw length sized beforehand to ensure a proper fit.

Agree withe the 10 and up. My daughter had another, smaller bow that went up to 20# draw. When she "topped out" on that bow I bought this one for her. It's also good for smaller women like my wife.

That would depend entirely on the way the individual fiberglass prod handles wear, which could easily vary by manufacturing batch. I don't measure draw weight, but based just on feel and sound I've had prods that maintain their integrity for many hundreds of shots.... and had others that fade after just a couple hundred shots. The one I have now is holding up very well
