Bowtech captain and admiral speeds???
I was wondering what kind of speeds you guys were getting from you bowtechs.
I went and shoot the captain and well you know, it was awsome!
But they did not have a chrono to run an arrow through.
What is your arrow weight, bow pounds, and speeds?
Thanks for the reviews!

Did you Not look at the BC's? They are usually pretty accurate and if you know what draw length and weight arrow you'll be shooting you should be able to figure your speed relatively close.

My Admiral shot a 350-grain arrow through a Custom Chrono, Heavy Duty ProShop Meter at 317 fps. She was set to 29" and pulling 71.9 lb.s
My Captain smoked the same 350-grain arrow through that chrono at 325 fps, with the bow set up to the exact same specs.

That wasn't my arrow; that was the arrow the tester fired through the bows before they left the factory.
I'm personally shooting Victory V-Force V-1 series shafts with pin nocks, three four-inch barred feathersfrom MeanV Archery, a Muzzy 50-grain brass insert, and a Muzzy MX-3 leads the way for everything. I'm purposefully trying togo forMORE than 350 grains.
