Default RE: Whats the heaviest draw weight? Just Curious and bored..

I personally setup and tuned an 86lb Apex 7 for a customer last year. It had the standard 80lb limbs but he wanted a bit higher poundage so I had gibblet make me a set of custom strings for it to wring out a few more lbs. He was shooting easton 2613's out of it at 300+ fps.....lol. He also had a 90lb Allegiance the year before. I watched him shoot a 330ish grain arrow out of the Allegianceone day through the chrono just to see what it would do......lol.......I don't remember exactly but I think it was going something like 370fps. I had to draw the A7 a few times while setting it up and let me tell you it was a beast. I remember thinking halfway through the draw the last time I drew it that I was worried about tearing a shoulder apart............
