It sound slike someone may be biased and you said who cares if it is loud at 325 ft per second then you said speed doesnt matter its smooth and quite so you contradict your self. If a company does a test dont you think there bow is going to come out on top ive never really heard "Our bow may be slower, louder, and unforgiving but we shoot it so should you". It is not the only bow out there that is that fast at all. THere are Bowtech's Mathew's and Hoyt's that all shoot that fast. Next time try not to contradict yourself in your own post.
