Overall I like a lighter bow. I think I have better control and draw a more pleasing sound than I do with heavier bows, and they're easier for me to bounce which I like to work on doing a lot. My light one is about 126 g's.

I once played a snakewood bow when I was shopping that felt pretty heavy and it put out a pretty neat sound...almost want to call it "dark chocolate" or something equally confusing. If I ever decide to throw the cash down for another bow I'll probably get one of those.
