Why shoot 90? Because you can. And only if you can. It’s not for the faint of heart, and you certainly don’t have to. But if you are one of the few who can, you’ll see significantly more kinetic energy using a heavier arrow, and that heavier arrow will absolutely cut through the wind and penetrate more than a lighter arrow. That said, 90 lbs. is a different beast.
