My dad traded for a bow for me for my 16th birthday and well i i think i did kinda bad fired it twice and could barely pull it back and when i finally got it back i missed the target hit the lawn chair we had leaned the bow target it on and it clipped it and well i lost the arrow.Second shot hit the deer on the target in the leg. But the bow is pretty sweet it's a jennings machined extreme xlr.

Well got it backed down to 65 pounds today. Hit the deer target with about 3 inch arrow groupings at 15 yards .My dad had never owned a compund either so he Fired it shot with good groupings till he shot over the target then he shot thru the lawn chair by accident and we lost to arrows todays.
