Rob, I hear ya dude.....but they are. I was getting a really bad left tear at 71 pounds....I set the arrow for centershot (and had the my tech double check) and had about a 2" tear.....I started turning the poundage down and it immediately began to improve. I hit 67 pounds....BLAMMO! Perfect bullet hole.

Mine are 29", maybe that little bit of length is the difference??? My draw is 30"......Only thing I can figure is the aggressive cam, coupled w/ the short ATA stores enough energy to overpower them. That rascal shoots great now, though. I shot a 2" group at 40 yards today, great arrow flight.

Like I said, I'm happy w/ the way the bow shoots, but I want it over 300....call me crazy.
