Default RE: Matthews hits 360FPS

Show me a bow that gets 360fps with a 28" draw lengthand withdecent weight arrows and a normal working guy can afford and I'll eat my hat.
They never will. That is why they call it IBO specifications...... It's a standard measuring system for bows.....which is a 30" draw length, 70 pound bow shooting a 350 grain arrow. Obviously if you have a shorter DL, shoot less than 70 pounds, or shoot a heavier than 350 grain arrow you will not achieve these speeds.

The problem is that Mathews, as well as a bunch of other bow manufacturers,is notorious for fudging their DL numbers and DW numbers in order to make their bows look good in their ads.
