Definitely not benching 500lb haha I’ll def give it a few test draws after getting a new string on it either way. Yes! There’s a few near me throughout the year that I hope I can attend and see different makes, models etcYou draw length is typically shorter shooting trad. Not knowing if you bench press 500lbs or you are weak and old like me, only way to know is give it a try.
Also going to a Trad shoot you can usually try different bows.
