I emailed Pat from Bowtech and asked him about the new Equalizer. His response was that at shorter draw lengths the Equalizer is their fastest bow they presently make. Look at the specs 300 fps 60 lbs at 26 1/2" DL. If you were to compare that to IBO 30" this bow would be faster than an Allegience. All reports I have read on it are positive and I am looking at it myself. You should try one and run it through a chrono if they let you.
