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
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.

65 lb. draw weight (measured)
28 1/4 inch draw (measured)
ACC 3/49 @ 26" 375 grains
277 FPS

RE: What is your arrow speed???
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.
