RE: increasing draw weight?
 

People DO tend to get all wrapped up in this speed stuff. It's really simple. Lighter arrows... more speed, more noise, harder on the equipment. Every add on cost you a little speed. Peep tubing especially is a bummer. All said and done, the peeps, and leeches don't really hurt you a lot. Every extra pound of bow weight gets you a few feet per second. What are you trying to do? Have your bow the fastest you can regardless or what? Do you want a quiet bow? Do you want to take it easy on the quipment? When it's all said and done, if you're after speed go lighter arrow and max poundage, assuming you're up to it.

I got a birth certificate w/ my B.I. ,you should have also.
Mine read 29/70/299fps. w/ a 350gr arrow.
So justsubtract 1 fps for every 5 grains over 350grs. your arrows are.

It would be minimal at best. Even if it's 2fps per lb of draw, you're still looking at less than 10fps increase. I doubt you'd ever notice it.

Except maybe on your longer downrange (30+ yds)trajectory.

Ok. Thanks. I am new to the whole figuring out speed thing. I've never paid any attention to it and from the responses, I should go with what works for me. (i.e.. quiet, vibration, etc...) I think with everything I have on the string, and the arrows I am shooting, I am close to 265 fps. It is shooting great so why tinker? Thanks guys.

8 fps,that would be your gain in that current fps range.


Not noticable in your pins or penetration.


Yes,not worrying about it is your best bet.
