I have had complete passthru's and broken Off-side shoulder bones with bows shooting only 39lbs/ft of KE. 49lbs/ft is quite a bonus, and a lot more than is needed for any deer. I'm very "shot selective" and not in the habit of trying to break heavy bones.

This bow is basically a 3D bow for this year. I could easily change the modules to 65% and get 310fps at 58lbs, but I feel quite comfortable at 55lbs. Why punish myself? Acccuracy wins out over KE every time, whether it be hunting or 3D.

RE: What kind of speed are you getting out of yur bow

Check my sig, its actually only goes up to 68lbs. Go Mathews. If they put them v-lock limb holder thingies on it when i'm ready for another new toy thats prolly what i'll get again...only this time i'll know better to find one the draws a little tougher. Bring on the 80lb limbs Mathews...the only other strike i can find against the darkside. Oh, btw, i get 288 fps out of it with cx300's total weight 376 grains.
