Al,
I have a single pin that's good out to forty yards.I bought the bow to use on dangerous game in Africa. Hopefully a hippo and cape buff will be on the receiving end of it's delivery system. I haven't put it through a chrono yet.
Last week MeanV, GregH, TFOX, and Doug all informed me that my bow was obviously sighted in wrong(which it was) as even an arrow traveling at 400 fps will have too much drop for a one pin sight to be usedout to 40 yds. I also learned 3 years ago on this site, that a 70# bow doesn't really shoot any faster than a 60# bow; just a a gain in kinetic energy, as a 70# bow requires heavier arrow than the 60#. Hense, the 80# bow will be nice for Kinetic energy on big, heavy skinned, dangerous game. No real speed advantage, just kinetic energy.
