Allegiance VFT

70# 28 in.DL RedHead CarbonMaxx 353 gr. arrow 305 fps

Why not take the speed w/ the accuracy? Just because a bow is fast doesn't mean it can't be shot accurately. That would be up to the shooter.

My Martin Slayr is IBO rated @ 325 fps.but That's witha 70# pull and 30 inch draw.I live out in the sticks so I don't have access to a pro shop with a chronograph but I imagine my fps is somewhere around 275 or 280.

My bow is setup for 60# pull, 29 inch draw. Plus all the normal hunting junk. Limbsavers, string whiskers, peep sight, nock point, and release clip.

My arrow is a Carbon Express Terminator 6075 cut to 29 inches with a Muzzy 100 grain 3 blade broadhead.

I know I hear that crap all the time. I'll let those guys pick one and I'll just take both....call me greedy

Now on to the question at hand, I shoot a 444 gr. arrow at 283 fps. (it's right around there I can't remember for sure, it may be a little bit more though it's been quite a while since I shot it through a chrono)
