Default RE: Mystical 200 FPS?

Arrowsmit,

More Big East shooters make that claim than all the shooters of other bows combined.
Some Big East shooters claim 210 or more.
If anyone states that they can get that kind of speed with 10 grains, they, most likely, didn't weigh their arrows correctly or guessed the weight, have a faulty chronograph, or are just throwing out B.S.
If they do make that statement, I take it with a grain of salt and laugh to myself without commenting.
They would have to prove it to me before I would believe it.
Compound 3-D shooters also make outlandish speed claims all the time.
I know damn well that some of the speeds they claim with their set-ups and draw lengths are B.S.
That's why I refuse to mention any of the speeds of my Recurves or Compounds on any of the forums.
Someone will always lie and tell everyone that their bow is faster when it isn't.
Good post, Arrowsmit.



Sag.
