WORST part of the show was when his dad launched an arrow into the sky at those sheep just so he could say he shot at one

. A waste of an arrow and litter on such great land.

I was watching Easton Reality Hunting this morning and there was an episode of this father and son bowhunting in Alaska for Mountain Goat. They were obviously sponsering PSE but I was impressed by the speed the son's bow was putting out. They chrono-ed it at 372 fps! I think he said it was a X force or G force 12??? He said it was the smoothest and quietest bow he ever shot...BS! Does anyone know what model it is?
Also, I must say, Alaska is beautiful! I envy anyone who ever got the chance to go there.

Personally the show was weak and the scenery cool.

to shoot the xforce at 370 fps at 95# he had to be using a much lighter arrow than is recommend, thats the only way i can see him reaching these speeds. And isent this bad for the bow? its almost like dry firing

Im surpirsed his bow isent broken yet, your supposed to use 475 grains, at that poundage, he must be using only around 300 grain or so arrows. Not to mention he loses almost 14 lbs of KE
