That may be true wis bow huntr, but it for sure aint lack of speed that does it either. Cant say Ive ever heard someone say that my arrow killed that deer deader cause it was moving at a snails pace.

475gr arrows at 275-277fps
how many lbs are you shooting and what's your drawlength?are you shooting 90 or 100lbs?

My draw length is 31 1/2in (measured) the draw weight is72lbs (again measured) The bow is a Bowtech/Diamond/Techunter

Iam getting 272-274fps with the same arrowsout of my Browning Oasishowever it's draw length is 31 3/4 (measured) and it's maxed out at 71lbs

My Browning Rage One (with the same arrows) was at 265-267 at 31 3/4

And last was my Ross CR334 (before I sold it) was shooting right at 265-269 again with the same arrows however it's draw length was right at 31in on the money.

Tee Jay - this sounds pretty high for a 60 lb. bow shooting arrows that heavy. Is this a calculation, or an actual chronographed arrow?

I think to get a true feel for what people are shooting we need to have the full specs. Here aremine:

05 Bowtech Allegiance
65 lb. draw weight (measured)
28 1/4 inch draw (measured)
ACC 3/49 @ 26" 375 grains
277 FPS
64 ft. lbs. of KE

Roskoe,
While I was at the range Saturday getting my bow worked on, the guy was pushing the new PSE X-Force. I swear I'm not making this up, and the only way he could have faked it was if his scales and chronograph were intentionally mis-calibrated. A guy was test shooting this blazing fast bow and the owner had him bring it over and in the best promotional grandstanding I've seen in a while, showed the draw weight on a digital scale at 61#, weighed a 425 grain arrow, then took everyone over to the chronograph and shot it and the chrono read 319 fps. I don't know what to think about that, but I was amazed at the speed. I'll still take my setup, but that is fast.

ONLy time I chrono'd mine ......I was shooting a 360+gr target arrow through my '07 Ally at 301.5fps.

That's a 29" DL

RE: What is your arrow speed???
 
So what would the IBO on a PSE X-Force figure out to be? Something close to 370? I didn't know they made anythingthat high . . . .
