It shoots well I just have have to shoot well. nice little bow set at 43 pounds. just the right wieght.

I think he means 43# @ 28"... most recurves are built w/ 28" DL so they're poundage is based on that DL.... then you just +/- about 3#/in. above or below 28.... 46# @ 29" ... 40# @ 27" .... yada yada...
