RE: So, anyone see who the fastest AMO bow in 2004 was? Thats right....
Regardless, it doesn't matter anymore. 235 isn't fast by today's standards, just average for an upscale bow. And IBO sucks, too. The only people who strive for speed are idiots like me, and only for 3D shooting. The vast majority of shooter, 3D and hunters alike, do not have a 30" draw, do not shoot 70#, so will not achieve IBO speeds on a regular basis. The industry (ATA) needs to implement a new standard closer to what is used by the average shooter.
Something like 65#, 28" draw, shooting about a 360 grain arrow. And as many bows are coming from the factory with Leeches on them now, it wouldn't hurt to include this in the equation.
