>>232171720s to 30s is about right for most people. You'll be pulling back that weight give or take 100 times per hour of archery practice and it starts to catch up with you eventually.
Although being a big guy (for me), could probably start 40-50lbs if your back is jacked. Also take note of your draw length, if that wingspan falls beyond the standard 28-30 inches, you will be pulling back more than the weight advertised on the limbs.
If crossbows are legal and you arent really interested in the hobby aspect of archery/hunting, then it might be a better choice.

But keep in mind, thats a lot of complexity and you if wanted to go full larp shtf, being able to shoot a bow accurately would mean you could quickly regain a lost weapon innawoods with some sticks and a string.
