HUH ?? What's that supposed to mean ? I merely stated what I saw on their site. I'm not affiliated with any bow company.

Sweet little 8 pound 6 ounce little infant Jesus, make it stop. Oh, what's that you say, even you are on the Mathews payroll?

PSE has a single cam bow out for 09 that pushes 330 IBO. It's called the Bowmadness XL I believe.340 is definitely possible.

Mikey, I was poking fun at the fact that even Jesus maybe on on the long list of Pros and celebs that are on staff as Mathews pays out better than anyone in this respect.

I know that anyone that has inside scoop with dealers , heard that the new Mathews bows would be 360FPS, but has anyone heard if it will be as short as the DXT? I have the DXT and love the concept of how small it is, especially in a tree stand our a ground blind.

You're kidding me....you mean I couldn't get 360fps with my 26.5" draw length and my 400gr arrows fletched with 3in helical vaneswith Slick Trick BH's. Well thats false advertising. Mathews is a bunch of liars.......

They never will. That is why they call it IBO specifications...... It's a standard measuring system for bows.....which is a 30" draw length, 70 pound bow shooting a 350 grain arrow. Obviously if you have a shorter DL, shoot less than 70 pounds, or shoot a heavier than 350 grain arrow you will not achieve these speeds.
The problem is that Mathews, as well as a bunch of other bow manufacturers,is notorious for fudging their DL numbers and DW numbers in order to make their bows look good in their ads.
Show me a bow that gets 360fps with a 28" draw lengthand withdecent weight arrows and a normal working guy can afford and I'll eat my hat.

Nah davidmil, you don't need to stretch anything. I got a feeling you've done this enough to know that speed don't mean everything in the woods.

Me too Vichris, I feel violated. LOL 27 1/2 inch draw and a 473 grain 4 fletched Speed hunter vanes. LOL It ain't fair I tell ya... it just ain't fair. I need to design an Arm Stretcher. LOL

Gee, I must really be out of the loop. I have my Guardian screeming at 263 or something like that. – Davidmil
An awesome bow that shots 260-280 is much better IMO. – Gri22
