Darn if that doesn't look like an BowTech Old Glory riser with an old Hoyt solid limb. I'd be intersted in shooting that thing, nice!

IMO that is the bow of the year Elite GTO

It 's Fast
Shock free
Great Limbs(Barnsdale)
Nealy strings(They had some issues, but they are all workout now)

Ibo 340-350 from what I read it's been hitting in the low 340's.

And I bought one;)

I like the GTO it looks like a real nice bow and thats a great price. I have noticed quite a few people selling their brand new GTO's and its because its not getting the advertised 350 fps but so what? As long as it shoots nice who cares? their perceived loss is your gain;)

Even at 340 theyre not even getting close, a lot of guys are upset about that but like i said so what? 330 320 no deer in existence would know the difference that s what my point was. Do you know anyone with a GTO who is getting even the advertised low end at 340?????

Yes all of them
340-345 If you read between lines what they are upset at, it's because there not hitting the high end. Mike(Crackers) has tested a pile of them. IBO speed is for a 30'' draw, not to many guys shoot 30'' draw. IBO on a 28'' draw is 320-330.

I ordered a 27.5" mod. for it and if it will shoot in the 300's at my draw length I'll be tickeled.

There are some great threads on speed. If I recall there is a guy getting 309 with a 27'' draw. There is some good information about the bow and not just speed.

BTW I am not a speed guy at all, but I like to get the correct information to folks. So whena guy with a 28'' draw complains about not making IBO with a bow, it's not the bow, it's the indian;)

Here is a guy I was looking for

27.5" 60# 310 IBO
349 gr. 289 FPS

If bows were porno stars, the GTO would be Jenna Jameson.All I know is that Germ says he's buying me one if his powerball numbers come out.

Okay, he didn't actually "say" that... But if he does win the powerball - I think he'll do the right thing.
