Default poundage,

My bow is set at 70lbs, I am shooting about 420 grain arrow, if i drop my bow down to 65, how many FPS can i expect to lose? At 70lbs, I am averaging 288FPS..

Default RE: poundage,

Usually you'll see 2 fps less per pound. Realistically your bow should be shooting about 275fps at 65#.
