Default How fast is your bow?

I know speed isn't everything in bowhunting, but I was just wondering how fast some of you guys have your bows flinging arrows. Mine is going a solid 285 fps at 60 lbs. and a 28" draw lengthout of my High Country Iron Mace. I'm shooting Carbon Express Radial X-Weave Predator 200 arrows. The arrows weigh 345 grains total.

I bought a new Diamond triumph which is rated at over 300fps @ 70#'s. Since I'm shooting 60#'s I really don't know the spped. One thing I do know is that it's a lot faster than theXI Flatliner bow I had before.

70# Tribby 28" draw shooting a 370 grain arrow at 295 FPS. I'm actually going to crank it down a bit though. I don't need 70 #.
