Default torn

I had a 3D shoot this weekend and got a chance to check my bow's speed.
400 gr arrow at 57# and 28" she gave me 255 fps.
Then I shot an arrow with a FOB and lost another 5 fps.
I didn't like that at all.....

But then there was this guy from Iowa ( The only redneck in Belgium ) Tom Bear, and he gave me one of his arrows to shoot.
1" shorter, carbon and 85gr fieldpoints instead of my 125gr.
Suddenly my 82nd did 299 fps !!!
I never got caught up in the whole speed deal but now I am concidering going for a lighter arrow........
