RE: How fast is fast enough?
Considering the bows I actually hunt with are running 185-190 fps, I'd say 269 is reasonably fast.[:-]
The Texas state record whitetail was taken with an o-l-d PSE the guy bought for $75 in a pawn shop. He was at our club's range Thursday evening shooting it. It (((might))) fling an arrow as fast as my recurve. Bottom line, it's not the bow. It's the skill of the guy behind the string that puts meat in the freezer.
