Is there a limit on the feet per second that your bow shoots to make the boon and crockett record books???
Boone and Crockett measure rifle kills, Pope and Young measure bow kills using the Boone and Crocket scoring system.
That said, I've never heard of a fps limitation. Good question and I await information from someone in the know.
B&C measures the animal, not the hunter. You can find the rack, shoot it with a rifle, hit it with your truck, spear it, shoot it with your bow, and it can still count for B&C. Taken or kept legally, it is in the runnings for B&C.
No bow can hold a candle to rifle speeds, so the point is null in the first place. No, B&C doesn't care how fast your bow shoots, nor does P&Y so long as you keep it below 65% letoff, or else you are set off with an astrik. P&Y is more stringent, no electronics on bow or arrow (lighted nocks disqualify you), preferred under 65% letoff, they have a few more rules. Private club, their rules to decide.

Splitting hairs, I wasn't being specific but clarifying. Thanks for making it even more clear. But, I never said it measures the hunter, I said it measures rifle kills.
