Brothers,
What is the easiest way to measure the pundage of your bow? Do you brothers use scales, if so where do you get them?

I use a digital fish scale I got on Ebay, works great and it's not all that expensive. You just have to get one with a range higher than 50 #. Mine will measure up to 120# which puts the midrange right in there.

You can use a bathroom scale and tiller stick to check draw weight. Almost everyone has one of those. Pat
