Here's a link describing the "binary" cam system.

It shows the small slot of draw stop adjustment.

It's also interesting to note that full draw with no peg will = 100 % let off, but no recovery- the bow will be "locked" that way. Sounds like a cruel camp sabotage waiting to happen .

Buckeye,

I see you bought at JB's was there that dramatic of a difference in price vs Acorn? Or do you just have an "in" at JB's to get a discount.

JB is a great guy and a pleasure to deal with. He has better prices on most things than Acorn but I also have some "in" with JB. Bob over at Acorn is a good guy to though. Acorns shop is second to none though 40 yard indoor range Techno hunt and a large assortment of accessories.

I just personally like dealing with John at JB's the most.

Buckeye, that is a nice looking setup!

How close is the actual draw length to advertised draw length? Is that the Trophy Taker on there? Is there enough travel on the slide to put a Zero Effect on there?

Questions questions questions.....

Hey Bucky....picking mine up tomorrow. I'm putting a MZE on it and we'll see how it works, but I don't think it will be a problem to function correctly. What a sweet bow. I pulled it back for the first time today and it's like no other bow I've drawn. Hard to explain. In a good way.

My certificate stated: 27" (short draw) at 70.8lbs with 350gr was 298 fps. I think with my set up, which includes a lower weight arrow will give me slightly over 300 fps, which is what I was looking for. We'll see.

Later and congrats.

Kelly

For the guys shooting the new system, what kind of speed am I looking at out of one?

My setup is 376gr Gold Tip Xt 27" , 28" draw at 65lbs.

Any rough guesses?

I measured mine and it is dead nuts 28" as for the MZE no problems it works great on the Allegiance

muzzyman88

Mine is set up 60lb 28" draw with a 400gr arrow was doing 265 consistantly through the crono un fortunately I gave all my light arrows away but you should be able to work it out my guess would be around 275/280 with your specs.

I set a Gold Tip Pro up at the specs mentioned earlier with 4 inch gateways and a 75 grain point. It put my arrow weight at 334.6 grains.

Shooting 5.15 gpp (65 # 334.6 grains) yields 310-312fps through my chrono.

Thats insane for a 29 inch DL and a loaded up string
S-M-O-K-I-N-G! ! !

Yes that is insane. I have only ever entered a few ASA events but guys with the Allegiance are really going to have to drop the poundage or shoot heavy arrows to meet the 280 fps maximum.




kcison

My certificate stated: 27" (short draw) at 70.8lbs with 350gr was 298 fps.
So kcison the 27" draw lengths are shipping already? That is the first I have heard of that, won't be long for me now. Only problem is I don't have a good place around me to shoot indoors. I miss when I lived near a big city and shot indoor leagues all winter. Buckeye, that is awesome that you have an indoor 3D league you can shoot in.
