To elaborate further...

Why give up trajectory to gain a trivial amount of momentum when your setup is already packing that much energy?

That is my philosophy exactly

Buckeye, you got a fast bow. My alliegance is 29" 70.5# and shoot a 378gr arrow at 296fps. Although my BC says 315fps.

Just a question. Somebody said buckeybuckhntr was sacrificing momentum for speed yet he was shooting a 400 grain arrow at 300 ft/sec. I'd be curious what value for initial momentum do you think should be a minimum?

Your arrow is 28 grains over IBO.
