Increase poundage or not?
Hey I had my bow chronoed the other day and when I saw the reading I thought something was wrong with the chrono. So did the shop owner, so she changed the batteries and did some other stuff but still the same. Well my bow consistintly hit 232 fps. I was pretty upset cause I dont feel like shooting a bow that slow. I know that a slow arrow will kill a deer as well as a fast one but I would rather shoot a fast one. My bow( 06 Hoyt Lazertec) has an IBO of 295. Well my actual bow is adjustable from 60-50 pounds. and the draw legnth is 27-29and a half. I am currently shooting at 50 pounds and at a 27 in draw. My arrows(maximas) came out to 332 grains so I am already shooting a light arrow. Also I can handle my current poundage pretty easily. I shot about 40 arrows at that poundage with no tiredness. So I think I could easily crank it to 55. But, I just spent some money getting a sticker for my adjustable single pin sight that if I adjust my poundage at all I have to have it all redone. So here is the dilemma. Should I leave it and shoot a slow arrow?Or should I spend the extra money getting my sight thing redone and go for some more fps? I was wanting to start shooting in some 3d competitions so maybe some more fps would be good. And suggestions would be great. If I dont get anything out of the info I will just leave it and shoot my slow arrows. I know that main reason is my short draw but hey, who doesnt want to shoot a fast arrow?
