I could handle it just fine.  I would never shorten my draw length to get that much weight.  It's not needed.  Heavier arrows are worse.  Light arrows shoot flat.  most archers try to get the lightest arrows the state will allow.   Personally i shoot 420 something and 64 #s of draw Id be content with 60 # draw plenty of penetration with a good arrow/broadhead.  :twocents:

I would question very hard the validity of that statement. I want heavier arrows for more KE and I suspect I'm not alone in that thinking,

My sentiments exactly.  :yeah: I shoot 81# and a 537grain arrow at 30". Needless to say kinetic energy is off the chart awesome!! KE is what you want more than speed. My fps is 296 with that set up.
If we were supposed to be vegetarian God would have made broccoli more fun to shoot!
"HOYT" why would you even consider shooting something else?

I'm 6'5" 260 and I shoot the destroyer 340. It's an amazing bow and it seems to fit and shoot perfect. Just my two cents.

He didnt ask for opinions about if you think the draw weight is too much :dunno: Just the type of bow? Me personally I would like to shoot the new mathews reezen.. I sold my 06 bowtech tribute to buy something new so i am in the same boat. Dont rule out PSE, I heard the nex x force is pretty good
