Strictly for the Mathews shooters...
 

I'm doing my own little tally here. This is STRICTLY a fact gathering post, I'm not even gonna poke any fun.

For all you Mathews shooters, what speed are you getting on what poundage, draw length and weight arrow? Also, what bow.

This is for my own personal interest....Thanks.

Oh, and I am looking for actual chrono'd speeds, not guestimates. Thanks again.

362 or 382 grains arrow weight I can't remember which. The rest is in my signature. I can't get myself to buy a new bow becuase there aren't many faster than what I already got and it is 6 years old now.

No idea,I have never even cared. I bought my Outback after I shot the X-tec, and the Bowtech ( can't even remember which one it was back then) becauseI liked the way it shot better than the others.

XT 70lb - 30" - 415 grains - 285 (IIRC)
Apex 7 - 70lbs - 30" - 437 grain 30X Pro - 281

never had it tested but should i guess. I am curious how the older models like this one matches up. Not the nicest bow to draw but i shoot well with it and have a great arrow/broahead combo that has passed through 5 out of 5 elk. Just curious did anyone else ever have one of these bows? I got mine second hand from a newspaper add. Not the best but it works.
