Live2draw, I do have a hard time believing your g.f's bow is shooting that fast with that arrow, draw length and weight. If it is true than that bow would be rated pretty close to 290 or 300fps at 28 inch's. My wifes parker micro pheonix set at 52lbs with at 26inch draw is only shooting about 218 with a 350grain arrow. Im not for sure about this but I thought the micro pheonix was a faster bow than the buckshot. I could be wrong though.
