Right now it is 80%. But when I get the bow I want, I will have higher than 90% let off, closer to 95%. It will literally hang by the string at full draw and have an IBO rating of close to 330fps.

65%. I tried higher letoffs and hated them. Sure they were easier to hold at full draw, but eachhad a little more jump at the release and my accuracy also suffered. Thats also part of the reason I keep shooting my 2000 model bow......the valley is fine and no manufacturer is going to make mebuy his higher letoff bow just because they can'tor won't make a good valley at 65% like they used to make.

DK, I hope you get what you want but I would be very skeptical of any advertising that states a 90-95% letoff bow will get 330 IBO.
