Default RE: Browning Illusion???????????

Bo,

I'm shooting a 28" draw at 62# right now, but I'm also shooting ST Axis 340 arrowswhich are heavier. I know they are also a little stiff for my current set-up, but that was what the pro-shop I went to suggested. I'm getting some Axis 400 in the near future.I think I'm around 240-245 FPS, but I honestly don't knowfor sure becauseI never shot through a chrono and speed wasn't a huge factor with me when I made my purchase. With your DL and draw weight you probably could reach about 280 with the Illusion. I think the SB is pretty close speed wise to the Illusion, butMatthews tends to over-rate their speed a little. The BT's, however, are faster. But, they also are not as quiet and shock free as the Illusion, and also cost a few hundred dollars more.

If you get a chance, shoot some BT's, SB, and the Illusion. I shot the SB, and a few BT's and liked them alot, butthe performance and price of the Illusion vs. the othersis what sealed the deal for me.

Brian
