hi everyone ,done some shooting out of the bow today the bow is 58# @ 28 I am a 27" Draw so minus 3# which is 55# @ my draw lenght and shot her through the Chrono the arrows I made for her weighed from 620 gn to 626 gn and were pushing through the Chrono @ 162 - 164 FPS and I am very happy with that also put a 450gn carbon through her and got 195 FPS out of her Don`t like carbons just to light I know you can get weights for them butt timber just feels much better and cheaper to boot
