Default RE: Who shoots an 'old' bow still?


I have a Hoyt Heat Super Slam. Got it 14-15yrs ago. I just, and i mean JUST upgraded to carbon express Arrows, I was still shooting Easton 2213's, and a 125 grain tip. I am planning to upgrade the sights, and rest soon, and make the change to 100 grain heads....

It's fast enough for me, somewhere around 220fps, and I can shoot the same pin to 25yrds. other pin is 30-35, and my 3rd pin 40.

If I was to upgrade to a new bow, personally I would get a Crossbow shooting 350+ Fps, but I don't see the need for a new bow.

220Fps or 300fps a deer will still jump your string at 30 yrds, so speed, is only really good for when you misjudge distances...
