Vic,

I got to shoot the bow in The Archery Shop today. Shooting 50#@27" , my drawlength, and a 486 grain arrow we chronoed it at 183 fps. That' s not bad for a 50@ bow shooting an arrow that' s 9.7 gr/pdf!

It is dead-on accurate for me out to 15 yards with only a couple hours of practice. I' ve got some work to do yet beyond that distance. I think the speed and the geometry of the shorter bow will take some adjusting to in order for me to extend my comfort zone to 20 yards. That' s where I would like it to be when we go to WV in November for our annual week of deerhunting.

Bill
