I ordered my bow with speed mods, it arrived with smooths.
My shop swapped them out for me& I went home with the speeds installed and the smooths in a baggy.
After a week of shooting the speeds I thought the bow set at 61# felt just like my Patriots 65# pull. So I swapped to the smooths and awwwe, I soon found the bow I was after.
The smooth mods with just a touch of adjustment on the draw stop (over factory setting) and I was home.
Sure I instantly lost 8 fps, but it was energyI was willing to give up for the payoff of a buttery smooth draw that allowed some creep without yanking me forward.
I've never even once considered reinstalling the speed mods, they look good in my gear box though

.
BTW the speed at 61 with smooths is almost Identical to the Pat at 65#.
My goal was a 400 grain arrow doing 270, the smooth Tributemet that goal.
