I won't really know for sure until I decide on some new shafts........A/C/C's?........or Axis?:eek: They'll be feathers, and 100gr heads anyway.

In any event I'm shooting for around 390-400grs finished arrow weight and around 280ish FPS at 30" 70#
Bow is a BowTech Liberty.

I always say Speed don't kill, shot placement kills.

RE: How fast is your rig?
 

Where is ArthurP at? I just love it when he posts on here with something like...."180 fps out of my Mamba recurve....". It sort of adds some fun to the post (meant in a good way ofcourse).:)

'04 Bowtech Liberty

71# 30" 438 grain arrow = 268-269 fps (full string setup)

'04 Bowtech MM VFT

282 FPS

RE: How fast is your rig?
 

Fast enough to get a complete pass thru
But not so fast as to burn up my feathers in flight ! :)

RE: How fast is your rig?
 

With my current rig, I shoot 70#, 31" 2514 shafts, 100 grain points at 227 fps, w/ fingers.

Fastest rig I had, Hoyt Deviator, 67#, 31" 2512 shafts at 272fps, or 31" carbons at 315 fps, still with fingers.

I have to say, I much prefer the slower, quieter set-up. Much easier to shoot too.

RE: How fast is your rig?
 

Sad to say we are a dying breed:(

RE: How fast is your rig?
 

Add another one to "the dying breed" list!


Fast enough to pass completely thru the deer and stick in the dirt on the opposite side before the deer can say.....oh shi*!
