I've been that way too Greg but my speed was always 285 fps this way the bow stayed in spec for ASA shooting. I'd set my rig up for ASA and shoot both ASA and IBO with it, throw on broadheads and hunt. My Allegiance was the first bow I hunted with over 300fps. I was shooting Muzzy and Snypers beautifully out of it.

My 82nd can shoot 340 fps if I wanted it too, for 3D I was sending them downrange at 327 fps but when it came time to set it up for hunting I went with a semi heavy arrow at 280fps. It's all I needed.

When you shoot 60# bows at 28" draw you don't have to worry about unshootable speeds[8D]

I still get a laugh at people that think their way is the only way.
Heavy arrows vs. Light arrows
Fast bows vs. Slower bows
On & On & On

In the last twelve months I havekilled gamewith arrows weighing less than 330 grains, but I have alsokilled gamewith arrows weighing over 500 grains.

I've killed game with a bow shooting 306fps and I've killed game with a bow shooting only 232fps.

Is one superior to the other in all hunting situations? Not in my eyes. Each animal, each area can take a slightly different setup to be optimum.

Don't tell a guy stalking Antelope in New Mexico that he is shooting too fast of a bow or too light of an arrow if you have never been there, done that.

Bottom line is there are more than one way to Git-R-Done than Your way (whoever You are). If it's not broke don't fix it!, but don't hesitate to try something new. You might just like it.

I shoot feathers and Love them. IMHO they are the best choice for me, but Blazers, QS SpeedHunters, and other vanes work very well and may well be the best choice for You. I test lots of equipment in the offseason to find what's best for Me. I may suggest that someone try feathers, but I won't ever say that Blazers, QS Speedhunters won't Git-R-Done!![8D]

Just a thought and I could be wrong but is it the speed of an unbalanced BH or the spin rate of the shaft that causes it to fly wrong? When I was young and did a bit of machining you could true up a piece of unbalanced steel at low RPM, if you went to a higher RPM it would try and throw the lathe apart. With my sons arrow we make them ourselves and I reduced the angle of the 2inch blazers till I found that point where the arrows fly best.He has no trouble grouping out to 40m and I get him to aim at different dots on the target because he cuts flights off. His specs are about 60lbs, 470g two blade at about 292fps.

It is a well know fact that the higher the speed, the more finicky the bow can be.

If you have good form, you can shoot any bow - accurately. Slower bows are easier to be more consistently accurate with.

I shot my IBO bow for a couple of 300 rounds once and mustered a 51x 300 with it but I averaged 54x's with my target bow and had a few 57x's with it.

I guess what I mean't to say is that the slower setups are more forgiving.

I've always hunted with last season's 3d rig and turned turned the new one into a hunting bow after 3d season was over. That way one can justify owning several bows!!
