I'm actually a pheasant-plucker
I used to be called a pleasant fucker.
The string on my bow is pulled back with a release aid.
Here's a guy with the (almost) equivalent pull of one of BIAD's old Aenglish bows. Sort'a cheating that a compound bow gives you a decent let-off of 80-85% once you get to full draw.
These days I'm down to a 65lb pull. Anything more than that sends me directly to Physical Therapy. I like all of my fingers too, BTW.
