LOL!! I knew a guy shot a Black Knight in the 380's with light arrows, he never had a need for armor[8D] Any sissy can get speeds with too light arrows. It takes a Man's bow to do it with Legal weight arrows

250 grain arrows now there's some sissy arrows[8D]

If you think your bow is immune to a Blowup, better think again

It would be impossible for me to be totally objective here, even though I am going to be, because I own a Iron Mace... but I will say that I have seen at least five times as many limb issues on Bowtechs I as have on High Country's... irregardless of what kind of arrow the customer is shooting.


From the jist of this post.. I think if you aren't shooting a Bowtech then you are obviously cheating.
No Swampcollie, All manufactureres besides HCA only warranty and approve shooting 5 grains per pound of draw weight.

So with that said, that's the standard in the industry to judge a bows performance via IBO specificiations. Can you imagine the speeds MOST manufacturers would reach and thusly, "falsely advertise" shooting a 250 grain arrow. Manufacturers could invent any speed they wish.
