RE: ATA show updates?? Tell us please...

J-Bird,

I'm with ya on the form thing. Heck I shoot the Ultra Max and people complain about it. I just don't agree that a string oscillating backwards and then forwards is the culprit for the pain you feel. Its the initial slap, before the string even make contact with the supressors.

RE: ATA show updates?? Tell us please...

Had a great 3 days. Story is done on the ATA show but not up yet. If things go well will have pictures up tonight on the web late.

If not will have it all up before next weekend.

<BLOCKQUOTE id=quotequote:<hr height=1 noshade id=quote>TRUE..Wrist slap is caused by poor form but the average shooter will have a problem with a bow with a brace height as short as 5 1/2". It can also be caused by wrist position on the grip, some one that shoots with a low grip will more likely have a problem than a high wristed shooter. I shot the new Black Max at the ATA show thourgh a crono at 334, and watched the guys from spot hog (shooting machine) fire the bow and it preformed up to its IBO speed rating. <hr height=1 noshade id=quote></BLOCKQUOTE id=quote>

well I am not trying to bust anyones bubble here. Well ok I am but anyway, but here is a qoute from another member that was at the show also
<BLOCKQUOTE id=quote>quote:<hr height=1 noshade id=quote>and today I was shooting the bowtech extreame vft and I did shoot it through a chrono. 70lbs, 350 grain arrow, 30 inch draw 335 fps. <hr height=1 noshade id=quote></BLOCKQUOTE id=quote>

As you can see that is 1 fps faster with an inch more brace height. The objective is not to just make them faster. The object is to make the faster and retain shootable charteristics like larger brace heights. I wouldn't shoot a sub 6 1/2 brace height if someone else was paying for it!

RE: ATA show updates?? Tell us please...

and which Bow Company are you an engineer for? Why would they make a claim they couldn't back up? They have everything to lose and nothing to gain. Sometimes the truth hurts and we just have to accept it<img src=icon_smile_wink.gif border=0 align=middle>

Hawgz:
I read they done that with a 3 grain per pound arrow in another post and it also state that bowtech shot a 3grain per pound arrow with the extreme vft at 427fps!!!!!! It is posted in the tech forum I think.
