Will going to the axis 400's drop my overall speed? Is this sufficent? Or should I goheavier? But since the season is right around the corner how well do you think the axis 500's that I an shooting will do ?How much does speed really account for? I do have a range finder just bought a leupold rx II camo. Pd 200 for it 100 bucks cheaper than cabelas and bass pro even with shipping added.
You must have a ton of stuff on your string. IMO you should be shooting 400's to begin with. I shoot 27" draw and the highest weight I've been able to push a 500 spine is about 63#, and that with 80gr glue-in points.
I would guess that you have enough stuff on your string that it doesn't let the bow transfer enough of it's energy to the arrow, thus the slow speed.
