I'm a 29" draw with 73# of weight. I have 369.5 grain arrows that come off the string at 340 fps which results in 95 ft lbs of KE. It's really great, but I am trying to tune it to make it better.

20, but I am very particular and my 30 yard mark isn't far behind the 20 on the tape of my HHA sight.

Man, I wish I would have gotten an 80# Mossy Oak X, if only I would have read this thread first.

I guess my 60# just can't kill deer and the Rage's I'm shooting, just suck.

I know I was shooting a victory for awhile and could shoot one pin out to 30 yrds and have very little arrow drop. Less than an 1 1/2

When you shoot 3D, 1.5" drop will put you out of the 12 ring, so I do it right.
