Default How fast do you think?

A 2003 50-60 lb( set at 60lbs) Bowtech Patriot Dually, 27" draw shooting 27" arrows weighing 373 grns would fly? I just won one on an ebay auction and was wondering what it might produce speed wise?

Maybe slower. Your shooting 27 inches, at 60 pounds, and 6.2 grains per pound....don't know what you have on your string to slow it down more....but that's probly about right.

The reason I said 265 was my 03 Pat Dually 60lb 28" draw with a 375gr arrow shot 275fps so minus 10fps for your inch shorter draw lenght.
