Says I selected the 55lb bow but in the description it has a draw weight of 30lb?

Has to be a typo is the description. If you look through all the bows 40lbs is the least available.

I have a little problem pulling the string all the way back; however, my husband is very accurate with it and it definitely is a 50 lb bow!

I like the bow very much but there is no way it has the draw weight of a 30 pounds. I don't know why a description would say that, but it does vary a bit with the arrow length. Shorter arrows require slightly less force since you are not drawing the bow as far. Great bow, though.

it says 30lb for all the options... they probably didn't update it for every option

Yes to first 2 questions. The length should be adjustable to your range. Check with your State as to the minimum draw for hunting with a bow. Florida requires 35 pound draw.

In my opinion, it is because a month or two ago, Amazon's description of the bow was wrong in their text. I called it to their attention and they fixed the text. The bow is rated at 45 - 60 lbs. It would appear they didn't go far enough and failed to correct the Q & A part of their descriptive text. Amazon is a large outfit and they don't always have their ducks in a row. Closer attention to detail is required here. Good luck with the bow!

This is a youth bow, it has a very short draw length (12"-24") and the pull weight is only 29 pounds not legal for hunting. So not for use by adults. It is a great bow to start children on.

i am a 69 year old man getting back into bow hunting. I am right handed, but blind in right eye, so I needed a left hand bow. I wasn't sure how much poundage I could pull, so I looked for a kids bow that was adjustable. The diamond came with an adjustment from 5-70lbs, and draw length from 15 to 30 inches. I went to a pro shop that set my bow up for me at 37lbs and 271/2 inches. I love it very accurate and dependable. Small enough to use from a ground blind, and light enough carry into the field.

This bow is not for hunting. Most state regulation require at LEAST a 30 lb draw. This bow draw is up to 29lb. This bow is intended for youths. I would say ages 10-12 yr old and younger. Great starter bow if you intend your youngster to continue shooting/hunting as they get older. Which a different bow will need to be purchased.

Just depends on how strong you are but the draw weight is adjustable also. You can adjust the draw weight yourself or most sporting goods stores can do it also for about $5 , maybe a little more. Long as you have it at 40 lbs or more draw weight it is legal to hunt with

Hi B. Carter- I shoot a 80lbs draw weight Mongol recurve horsebow and they do just fine for me. I can't speak for heavier draw weights. Hope that helps. Gary C.

Hello Kelly, I have two different bows I had purchased, I believe the bow in question has a 16 lb. draw. I hope this answers your question.

That is the draw weight for the bows. You can get it in 20 pounds up to 35 pounds. In other words, if you put a scale on the 20# bow and drew it to full draw, the scale wold read, 20 pounds. You might borrow a friend's bow to see what weight you are comfortable with before you order one.

My sister shoots compound bow at 45 lbs. I wouldnt think there would be a difference and you'd be good to go, but that may be a manufacturer question or an archery tech.

Draw length is adjustable and very simple to change. It is definitely powerful enough to hunt with. I used it this past season and the deer is shot went about 20 yards so it packs enough punch. I think the max draw weight is 60lbs not sure you could get that much with a 22" draw but I definitely recomend this bow. For the money and quality you can't beat it.

The barnett quad 400 has a 3 to 4 lb trigger and a 150 lb draw. Great bow. Crisp trigger but a bit heavy. Use a bipod with it.

Depends on his build and strength. Suggest you ask whoever gives him lessons... if they are not available, take him to a Bow shop and have them make a suggestion on draw weight. It is better to err on the side of getting a lighter draw rather than a draw that is too heavy.
