. shooting a 75/95 (7.9 gpi @ 27.5 in) with 100 grain tip and blazer vanes and set at 65# i was shooting 294 fps. oh, its a 2004 pat sc, 29" in draw. this is surprising to me since at 70# i was shooting 296. “ I HOPE YOU STAY LUCKY”

I do not know if you have seen my Bowtech postings on speed, but I do believe different limbs can make a difference. My bow was bought @ 28.5” and 60# although there were 4 modules & I usually shoot @ 30”.

My Pro Shop Owner Personally took this bow back to the factory to have the speed checked but all they appeared to do was give it a new BC.

So my Hypothesis is, if I had a company that built, checked, & evaluated the bow limbs as much as Bowtech say they do, I may grade them. And any limb that seamed to have a defect whatsoever, but not bad enough to discard, I would put it on a bow not rated at 70# and 30” draw. Because in my conspiracy mind, I may believe that each level of math a bow hunter had to transverse, the less likely they are to see the defect.
