Took off Limb Dampeners
 
Well I pulled the 2 Sims Limb Dampeners off of my old 165 lb Excal Exocet, actuall one fell off so I did away with the other. I did however leave the string silencers on the “Boo” string. Shot it thru a chronograph and it topped out at 270 FPS. Does that sound about right for this bow?
Wish I could have chronied it with both dampeners on to see the difference

I've found that dampeners out on the limbs slow arrow speed by some 10-15 fps.

Sounds abour right to me too. The four deer I have killed with my CB didn't seem to mind the fact that I wasn't using Limb Savers.....lol :confused0024:
