    Default arrow speed in MPH
    I saw it once but lost it- whats the formula for configuring out how fast your arrow is traveling in mph?

    To convert fps into mph...

    fps x 0.6818 = mph


    With this formula...

    250 fps = 170.45 mph
    275 fps = 187.495 mph
    300 fps = 204.54 mph

    My favorite hunting bow only does half a fuzz under 150 mph. My selfbow does over 100! Gee, it's faster than I thought it was.
