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.
You're kidding me....you mean I couldn't get 360fps with my 26.5" draw length and my 400gr arrows fletched with 3in helical vaneswith Slick Trick BH's. Well thats false advertising. Mathews is a bunch of liars.......[:-]......................................ok........ ................. sarcasm off
Me too Vichris, I feel violated. LOL 27 1/2 inch draw and a 473 grain 4 fletched Speed hunter vanes. LOL It ain't fair I tell ya... it just ain't fair. I need to design an Arm Stretcher. LOL
