RE: Matthews hits 360FPS
While I think a 360fps single cam bow would be awfully nice, I don't see how it would live up to the smooth draw Mathews is known for.
You have to generate that speed somewhere and the draw cycle is going to change dramatically in order to acheive that kind of energy. You're going to feel a lot more of that full 70# a whole lot sooner and a whole lot longer than you would with a bow generating the 315-320IBO speeds.
I know they'll sell a boatload of them regardless of how it draws, simply based on the Mathews name, but whether it will live up to the standards people have set for them -I'll believe it when I see it.
