[Dan92]

[Elmo]

The more the merrier.

[Dan92]

That's what i like.. Between 75 -90 % any lower i feel I'm concentrating more on fighting to holds bow back them using my sights... Idk if that's just how i feel or of that's how you guys feel as well

I think mine is 80% but as soon as they come out with 100% I'm in!!!

I have 80%, if I remember correctly, P&Y places an asterisk by anything over 60% in the record books.

Seriously......why the **? I think I have 85% letoff...and that to me is pretty standard, no?

[Geno C]

mine is 80%

More important than the let off is the feeling of a "solid back" (i dont know if thats the right term) after it is let off. Sometimes I feel like the bow wants to go on its own. That I don't like

It's been here for 100's of years - crossbow.

Doesn't that mean the draw length on the bow is too long for you?

[crappyice]

Not its the right draw... I checked it at my shop and i even had the sensation at the range with the guy who set up my bow. It mostly happens when I OVER-relax or my form breaks down or when. Punc the trigger...usually happens when I have not shot for a while..it's ALL ME! But I'd rather blame the equipment!

None, I like a recurve better...my old compound has 65%

[biggamefish]

Long bow for me so I get no let off either. My choice and i think it's a great one.lol

I was having this discussion last weekend. My wife's uncle was saying that he can only comfortably be at full draw for 15-25 seconds. He didn't know what the let off was off the top of his head but I let him draw my bow with 80% let off and he said other than it being left handed he could sit at full draw all day if he had to. The higher the let off in my eyes the better.

Same here. Way more fun to shoot then the compound. I think that would be considered negative let off. The farther you pull the harder it gets.
