Your's is about 10 fps faster than mine, and I've never had an animal "duck" an arrow. Most of my shots are real close and the animal doesn't really stand a chance if the arrow is on target and the animal isn't about to run as I release. The closer you get, the louder your bow will sound to the animal. This is why I have an STS, 3 sets of cat whiskers, and rubber silencers all over my bow. No such thing as "too quiet".
