Well what are the draw lengths? Did you measure them?

I can see an LX doing 280 w/ a 410 grain arrow at 29" or more draw, but not a Legacy. I had 4 different Legacy models (two 29" cams & two 28.5" cams) and the fastest one was my left hand 29" (measured 29 5/8" AMO) and it shot 292 FPS at 5 grains/70 pounds (loop & peep).

The LX on the other hand will do those numbers all day long.

I use the same chrono for all my testing.
I have to admit, I have not owned any of the bows shooting the numbers I've posted here nor have I measured the draw length. I do know that both bows were supposed to be 70#/29"ers though. I have a hard time believing that the two people I talked to are F.O.S. but I have been fooled before.

I just wish that I had a dealer near me that sold both BT and Mathews so I could shoot them side by side with the same arrow and decide which is better. I have shot both, but it was an hour drive between the two shops.
