Default RE: speed???

The name on the bow means much less than how that bow feels in your hands when you're shooting it. How does the draw cycle feel??? Does it have a solid wall??? Was the handshock acceptable to you??? What's your budget??? Speed might be one of the last and first factors we all consider, but if it's a 400fps bow and the grip just don't feel right in your hand, all that speed ain't gonna do you any good, because your not gonna be comfortable shooting that bow. YOU have to determine what is MOST important to you. Are you willing ot accept a small amount of handshock vs. NONE to save $200, or are you willing to accept a more aggressive draw vs. a very smooth draw to gain 20fps???

I personally shoot about every bow I can get my hands on, even if I'm not "bow-shopping," because it gives me ideas of how different set-ups feel.
