Mark... according to OT2.. you fall within the o.k. range. That bow has 2 hard cams and I figured you shot with3- 8 gr fletchings and no wrap. Seems to be spined ok. OT2 figured your set up @ 271fps, 9.14 foc, 70 ke. with the info you gave this is the best info i can give....

thanks dan, im not clear on exactly foc is but jkcmerg says it is 9.14. it seems to me that I have heard that it should be some where in the low teens? if that is true what is the best way to change it?what would changing it do?(will I notice a difference?)

I will not shoot a broadhead tipped arrow with less than 12% FOC. IMO it gives you better conrol and better groups. I also think it will improve your penetration slightly. There are no shortcuts in adding more FOC. Lighten up the Fletching, or add Weight to the front. Weighted inserts, heavier broadhead, or brass inserts. It just depends on how much you wanna try to get. The new FOC shafts will also help. If you ever buy new shafts
