I realize that deadlifting and a bow pull isn't the same, but I used it for lack of a better word.My presumption is that a Str 10 Character could generate enough force to pull back a mighty (str 18) bow without penalty... for about a second. With the pulleys of a compund bow in place, that might be all they need.Real world example just makes sense to me. Your taking a standard bow and adding modifications to reduce the pull strength, at least during aiming. As I understand it, compound bows aren't impossible to draw without the pulleys, they're just on the high end of the power curve (ie stronger individuals would be better suited to them w/o the extra mechanics involved).</blockquote>
