Default RE: speed?

Sorry guys. I just reread all your postings and started thinking there's no way I’m at 330 fps. Just now shot 10 arrows through the crono and ended up with a 234.9 ave. (more like it ha) All you speed demons have probably been working overtime time to figure out how in the heck is he getting 330. My comment of moving my pins closer together still holds. When I went from Alum arrows to carbons I dropped down 15% in weight and surface area (reducing drag) and went from 210 to 235. I was very pleased except I then had to go to a double row pin sight to be able to get the pins close enough to one another. Even at 210 I've had pass thrus on deer and think accuracy is far more important that speed. My problem which drove me to the carbons was trying to flatten out the trajectory some to reduce poorly placed shots due to slight misjudgments in distance. Again sorry for any confusion on the 330. I'm surprised more of you didn't jump all over that????
