Default RE: Anyone NOT useing a string loop ?

Alot MORE guys than I thought shoot off the string[]This is really makeing me stop and think.What is the speed gain for one more inch of power stroke ??.
Any of you guys out there know ??.I think it' s around 5 to 8 fps.???not sure.
If I shot off the string I could go up to a 28" draw,GREAT !.I could also use 80% let off, and not see a speed reduction over my 27" inch bow,with 65% let off.THIS TOO IS A GOOD THING [:-].When I shoot a friends bow,that has 80% let off, I LOVE it.It blows my mind how many guys on this board scoff at the idea of useing a bow w/80% let off.I don' t get it []I could care less how the POPE and YOUNG organization feels about my choice in hunting equipment.Is it REALLY that hard to get off a good shot,inside normal hunting range,with a bow having another 10 to 15 % reduction in holding weight ???.
