Default RE: What are the chances of..........

I think I've got this thing dialed in 100% now. I've got a sight tape that holds true out to 60 yards on it now, and it really stacks them in there if I'm doing my part. I'm anxious to test the sight tape out to 80 yards now.

Right now I'm getting 304fps at 30", 59lbs, and with a 314 grain Pro 22. This is about 14fps faster than my old Apex with nearly the same specs.

I've been using 53-55lbs since last 3D season, so I'm still getting used to pulling more weight and I anticipate cranking the bow up to 62lbs as soon as I feel I can draw it withsmooth dynamic back tension at that weight. I'm pretty sure I can get another 8-10fps by doing this and then it's really going to be smoking at 310-315 fps.

Dan and I are headed out tomorrow to shoot two seperate 3D shoots, our first of the year. I shot a 28 target indoor 3D course today that goes out to 33ish yards and counting center 12's I ended up with a 300 (20 points up). The lighting was also terrible in there and they do some awful things to play this as well such as a 32ish yard standing black bear up tight against a black wall with poor light....lol.
