Just to let you guys know that mine came in today and that they are shipping 29 inchers on the Allegiance!!
The birth certificate says; 60.7 pounds,, 29 inch draw,, 300 grain arrow,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,, ,,317 fps
I'll be setting it up and shooting it tomorrow

Ya got me a little excited WWAG. My reasoning is that a 29 inch on the Allegiance should be a 30.5 on the Old Glory...a half inch short...darn!

Seriuosly, I am glad to hear it. That sounds like one heck of a Christmas present.

WWAG, why did you have to go and do something like this. PAHardwoods and I traveled halfway across the state and back looking for a dealer who had a couple to shoot here in PA. Nothing! Anywhere!

Can't wait to get my hands on the Allegience. Be sure to post some initial thoughts on the bow once you put a few arrows through it. Eager to here how she does.

Not sure where in PA you are but Acorn Archery in New Castle PA has them.

He has the Allegiance, Defender, Old Glory, Independence and Tomcat.

What are the specs on the Allegiance and Defender? ATA, choices in letoffs,etc.

Well I set the bow up and shot a few arrows through a VERY cold chrono outside[:@] Here's waht I got at 60/29;
356.2 grain arrow went 297 fps
391.4 grain arrow went 287 fps
484 grain arrow went 257 fps
518 grain arrow went 249 fps
The 484 grain arrow is my last year's hunting arrow I used with the 70 pound 29 inch Justice and the Justice shot then 247 fps. The Allegiance at 60/29 is 10 fps faster than the Justice with the 484 grain arrow
I think I'm gonna like this little 60 pounder!!!!
These numbers are almost identical to the readings I got with my '03 Pro 40 Dually!! Could we see the BlackKnight wearing these cams in '06????

"Here's what I got at 60/29;

That's insane for a 25.5" riser and 7 inch brace height.

Yep, when I do the math for the 391 grain arrow I get 71.53 ft. lbs. k.e. Suppose that's enough out of a 60 pounder??
