Mr E

I have an archery elk hunt scheduled for Sept in Washington. I was reviewing the regs and noticed a change from the 2005 regs. In 2005 the reg stated that it was illegal to have more than 65% let off, in the new 2006 reg it does not say anything about the maximum let off allowed. Is this a change this year, or simply an accidental omission? It also states (both years) that it must be a 40 lb draw weight at 28 inches. I only have a 28 inch draw length. So even when I have my bow (60 lb draw) at full draw with the let of at 65%, I am only holding 39 lbs. I wanted to adjust the let off to 85%, but not if I'm going to be breaking the law. Any enlightenment, advise or help is appreciated.

On top of my head, I believe the 65% got dropped this year and for the next two years. They changed/mod the regs every three years.

That's what I wanted to hear. Thanks for the info.

They did away with the let-off rule. And it has to be a 40 lb minimum draw weight, not the weight you're holding after let-off. You're good at 60#.
