Speed... who has it??

[skip]

Give me an idea of the speed you are getting out of your set up... let me know what the set up is and if its 3d hunting etc...

this should be quite interesting to say the least :)

[Big Country]

With todays bows, it is pretty easy to get enough speed for 3-d.

I can get enough speed out of my pro-elite with xt3000 limbs to get DQ`d from an ASA shoot at 29" draw and 5 grains per/lb.

2004 Hoyt Pro-Elite XT3000 limbs........@ 5gr.=288.........3-D
2004 Hoyt ProTec XT2000 limbs..........@5.42gr.=284......3-D
2004 Hoyt XTec XT1000 limbs..............@6.16gr.=282......Hunting
2004 Hoyt Pro-Elite XT3000 limbs.......Navigator arrows(don`t know the finished weight)=256.......Field

[pinshooter]

My 3d bow is a little on the slow side for my 28" draw but its a real tack driver.

Target: Browning Oasis, 63.5lbs, 310gr arrow = 278
Hunting: Storm F28, 71lbs, 365gr arrow = 280

Mathews Mustang 25" 50# with 335 grain arrow shooting 240fps hunting

[OregonArcher]

AR34 27/70 shooting a 400gr arrow(roughly) at 260fps. Now take into consideration i also have a peep, leeches, kisser button, knock, and ebuttons on my string. i use this for both 3d and hunting.

2005 BowTech Allegiance :)

65# 29 inch DL 360 grain Gold Tip Pro Hunters 302 FPS :shock:

This is the new 3-D set up for this year. Will also do hunting duties 8)

Maybe I will break it in on a doe down in southern Ohio this late season where I can tag another doe still :?

[Boone]

My 3D bow is a 2004 Bowtech Pro 40 dually 28.5 draw, 64 pounds, 365 grain arrow @ 304 fps :D

[mikieday]

ok, this is a custom built bow : enhanced by a company called Monster bows Inc. they are in Brighton Mi.

they took my bow (2004 Oneida Black Eagle LF) 50/70lb: installed a set of stealth cams on it (cams from a 2000 model year bow) did some other tuning and tricks...this bow is fast and quite..i have had 3 bows done by them and they do other bows too . not just oneidas

1: Black eagle conversion: 59lbs: 95%let off: 29in draw: dyna 97 string: 315g arrow: 297fps

2: Stealth oneida: 50lbs: 95%letoff: 29in draw: 450+ string: 315g arrow: 280fps

I'll plead the 5th or else you'll have me before the rules committee in Gainesville...... :shock:


Seriously, Last year my old set up did 284 fps.

This was a XT3000 UltraTec at 54# with 8125 custom strings and cables.

Gold Tip UL Pro 22's. 27"draw.


Haven't checked the new rigs yet. I guess I'd better get to it though before I waste a plane ticket..... :shock:

[McArcher]

My 3D set up for right now is 04 mathews LX set at 25.5" draw at 80% 65lbs shooting a 325grn arrow. Speed is 277fps. The bow is not very fast at my draw length. But most bows are not! It is very smooth and accurate.

Skip, how about an average blistering speed of about 175-85fps and that's with 550-650grn arrows (woodies) smoken! :cool: Bows range from 55-65lbs recurves for hunting and 3D.
Yes, I snuck on in here in the general section you know how "us" stick shooters are? All right... I'm headed back to the dark side back to the trad section! :-o
You guys have fun.

Out for now

[skip]

Now thats some speed :)

As effective as 300 fps with a good shot, and certainly brings with it its own rewards and feelings of accomplishment... :)

Good job!

[SageCreek]

I was getting 308fps out of my C2 at 63lbs and 311 out of my LX at 62lbs last year, both at 30" draw and about 5gpi in arrows.

I have two Ovations this year, the speed is down, but the shooting is good. I need to shoot them through the meter some more. One was shooting 288 with the same arrow used above in testing.
