    i have a bear "charge" when i bought it i had it set up at 50 or 55 pounds to make it easier to get used too. i want to crank it up now to get ready for the upcoming season.
    when i crank it up will i change my draw length ect? or will everything be fine.

    It shouldn't effect the DL, but it can change how your rig is tuned. Depending on how much added poundage there is, it can effect the performance of your arrows. There most likely will be very little or unnoticeable change, but for instance, if you are already riding on the bubble as far as your arrow spine goes, it could be enough that you'd have to make some adjustments (ie. change tip weight).
