X-force VS 82nd

[ArrowMike]

Has any one tested these two bows against each other using same draw length, bow weight, and arrow(same height )? If so who came out ahead?

What type of speed are people getting out of these two bows? Don"™t forget to tell what speed, poundage, draw length, arrow weight and spine if you know it too.

I just logged on to post the same question.

[Rob/PA Bowyer]

I have difficult time comparing these two bows. The ATA aren't even close. 33" for the X Force, 36.5 for the 82nd.

The fact that the 82nd at that longer forgiving ATA gets the speeds it does in itself is impressive. The bows are apples to oranges.

That being said, I chrono'd my 82nd with several makeups at 28.5" draw.

At 70 lbs, 381 grain arrow, 327 fps
At 62 lbs, 381 grain arrow, 307 fps
At 62 lbs, 346 grain arrow, 320 fps
At 62 lbs, 314 grain arrow, 330 fps! !

Rob- did you have anything on your string(peep,nocks,ect) for these speeds?

Im impressed with the # from your 62 lbs w/314 gr @330, Are the limbs 60 or 70 lbs on this test?

#'s on my 82 are as follows.
60# 28" draw shooting a 330 grain CX Maxima at 308fps withloaded string. The bow sight just sits on the target very stable.

I know this has nothing to do with speed, but I bought my 82nd two weeks ago, shot a Carbon Express CXL 350 Select that is 8.2 gpi and the cams could not take the force and have buckled together. 72 lbs, 30" draw length, string has a peep and string loop.

What was the total weight of your arrow?

The locak shop carries the PSE X Force and the BowTech line and I have looked at the X Force. I haven't shot the X Force but I have the 82nd and to me thereare many more value added features in the 82nd. Most apparant is the machine work difference between the two bows. The riser on the 82nd is a work of art but the X Force is VERY plain. Both bows are about the same money but the 82nd just looks like you're getting more for your money.

I'm here as Rob and others are to answer your questions as best we can. Sometimes it's hard to see every post that asks a question. I know my Speeds were attained with a loaded string, weighed arrow, my Chrono, weighed peak weight, and measured draw length.
