Is there a difference of draw weight on a cross bow compared to a compound bow?

How much draw weight does a recurve bow have?
The answer to that question will change depending on what type of recurve bow and for what purpose you will be shooting. For example, if you are hunting and are planning to kill a large animal, you will likely want a recurve bow with over 50lbs of draw weight. If you shoot with less weight than this, you may only injure the animal and that would be cruel. Bows with over 50lbs of draw weight are more difficult to pull back and hold steady, therefore the accuracy of your aim will be reduced. If on the other hand you want to shoot targets and need to be as accurate as possible, such as in a field archery competition, you will want a draw weight that is under 50lbs. In fact 30 - 40lbs would be a likely choice. This will allow you to hold more steady on the draw and line up your target. The lower weight will be acceptable as all you need to do is reach your target, not kill it. Please note, this is in regard to recurve bows only, not compound. That's a whole other world.
How much will your 26 inch arrow drop with 125 grain broadheads draw weight is 43?
You are shooting a 43 draw weight? I would say you are going to drop pretty significant after about 30 yds compared to a higher draw weight. Since the broadhead is only 125, it won't drop too much from a good 15 to 20 yds. Try shooting a little bit with a few different grained broadheads. See if you have a consistant shot group with at least 3 different grains. That should give you a general idea of how much your drop will be with that 125. Only way I know for you to determine it! anonymous You are shooting a 43 draw weight? I would say you are going to drop pretty significant after about 30 yds compared to a higher draw weight.
