Curiosity question...
 
I just retired a 20 year old Black Bear bow, It is set at 65 pounds, 28" draw length, shooting easton game getters 2016's with 100 grain broadheads, I took my first deer with it this year and retired it. How many FPS would this setup shoot? Just curious, my new bow shoots around 270, I know it smokes my old bow, just wanted a estimate as to the speed of the old timer.

Taz,

I would love to throw a speed estimation your way but the problem arises that you need a baseline in order to do the reasoning. Normally the "baseline" is either the bow's IBO or AMO speed rating. Without that rating I would trully be guessing.

Sorry that I could not help more.

Take a guess, it really doesn't matter!
