Since I started flinging traditional arrows speed means a lot less to me than it used to.......I killed my biggest buck to date this past season w/ a recurve arrow traveling a whopping 185 fps.

My Bowtech General is doing 1fps faster than the one you shot at 269fps and I didn't fell handicapped in the least this season using it in IL.
I have bows doing all levels of the speed specturm now and when my Airborne 82nd gets here I will have set-ups that do everything from 185fps all the way up to 345fps with different arrows all serving different purposes. The bottom line is that they all fit well and that they all shoot well for their inteded job. I don't look at the speed anymore just for the sake of speed.
I guess I'm one of those oddballs who can embrace very modest stick and string speeds all the way up to the absolute fastest bow on the market and have a great time shooting all of them.
For a hunting bow as long as the bow tunes well, shoots well, and fits me properly, speed anymore to me is just whatever it happens to be.
My advice is to go with the one that feels the best to you and seems to hold and shoot better in your hands. The vast majority of modern compounds are so overkill for deer sized game now that it's almost silly to split hairs based on speed alone.
