I rarely believe when most people share speed #'s online, it's too easy to use a bow scale, chrono, or arrow scale that will produce poor results. Just MHO, but there is no way to ensure consistent measurements are being made.
Not quite sure how to take that one. I rarely believe a LOT of what I hear from "most" people online. When you say it, though....I believe it.
I measured the arrow weights myself...and chrono'd my bow at the same time, today. It is what I said it was. I didn't check the bow #-ages (I've checked mine when I got it...and it's a few months old). It's the same chrono I've been using for years....and the same one that saw my target arrow from my 82nd shot at 337fps at 62#'s.
I'm not claiming the instruments were calibrated by NASA. I'm telling you what they shot, today. I gave you those numbers.
Wasn't meant as a shot at you Jeff, hope you didn't take it that way. What I'm saying is that a 1% error on the chrono, combined within a 1% error on the arrow scale and bow scale, could skew a number a significant amount. I'd bet that 80% of chronos, arrow scales, and bow scales are +/- a few.........I've seen and used enough of them to see it happen all the time.
Also one other thing to think of Jeff.......the Reezen you stated was 4fps faster using the same arrow, same specs........compared to your Allegiance, which is rated at up to 335fps.
