RE: I'm Tired....
The people that make bows know if they make fast bowssomeone wants a fast bow. My bow shoots around 272 fps with 407 grains an its going into the 5th season with me this year. I have my first pin at 17 yards. I judge distance after that an just shoot one pin. I know my bow an how much to raise it all the way out to 40 yards. I have no desire to shoot further than that matter of a fact never have shot farther than 27 yards at a deer.I do not need a bow that shoots350 fps with a 315 grain arrow.

ORIGINAL: magicman54494 People would be much better off learning to be a better shot than worrying about speed. Learning to shoot quickly, or holding for a long time, or odd angles, or different stances, or distance judging quickly. Shooting in hunting situations is very seldom the same as shooting at a target in your back yard. To many people get up in corporate Americas MARKETING crap! My budy shot more deer with his "used" 1982 Hoyt than most dream of - fyi @ 172FPS. Go figure! |

I shoot#59 -#62lbs with a 27in. 2413 or 2215 and 27.25in draw. I couldn't even tell what speed I get as I haven't bothered with a chronograph, shhh don't tell the deer that. I think this setup is more than fast enough. Just ask the guys that shoot longbows.:)

A shot over 200 FPS was thesound barrier of archery for thousands of years, and yet they did the job. I'lltakestealthover speed any day, now if I can just gain some stealthiness... :D

RE: I'm Tired....
My PSE shoots @226fps, personally any new bow out there would be faster. Less drop from 20 to 30 would be nice!

RE: I'm Tired....
I agree...I get tired too....but when you look at the big picture...we want and desire the biggest and the best sometimes...not all of us...but in most cases I guess itshuman nature....
We want the best take down recurve...the fastest bow....the biggest blind...the best land....the biggest fastest ATV....the most lethal broadhead...Its like money....Most of us want lots of it.... I think anyone with a good sense of life....a giving person...one who helps....In the end....will have all of these things.... |
