Default Afterburners Vs. Aftershave

Being the 19yo old invincable studI am.....[8D]I have quite the opposite feelings from GMMAT. I kinda wished i woulda ordered speed mods... How harsh are they on the Ally's? I really want to be pushing at or over 300fps, I know i know it is very un-neccasary, but it's kinda a little goal for me. And with all the muscle in the way i can only manage a 27.5" draw and with all and all i feel im gonna fall short with the smooth mods.

Input guys?

I also need to add, im thinking more along the lines of 3D and showing off to the buddies, "hey i bet my bow is faster than yours", hunting situation doesnt really matter right now.

I didn't feel a noticable difference between the two. Completely honest.

That, I don't remember. I switched those out in April of last year. I can't honestly remember what I shot with the smooth mods.

Well I'm going to be hunting with 68lbs on my Cardiac. It just feels good and not to mention, it doesn't really feel like that much. Anyone who has shot the Cardiac, can attest to that.

How much is your arrow gonna weigh, Aaron?

Witht he speed mods....I "Think" you'd pick up 4-6fps.....but that was (again....I "think") at my draw length. I can't say what you'd get out of it.

What poundage do you want to shoot it at? That's gonna make a big difference, too. If you crank it up......and shoot +/-350gr.......you'll get there with EITHER mods, I'd bet.
