As long as we have the habitat, we can argue forever about who gets to kill what and when.  No habitat = no game.

Pronghorn T/D longbow 58@28
Horne Ridge Runner recurve 69@28
Raptor Signature Flatbow 57@28

These are my 3 hunters, though the Horne is new to me and I haven't had a chance to get it out, plus a few more that need to get some field time.

your numbers do not add up?
the maxxis has a IBO speed of 323fps
so at 26" draw you are 4" under that is a 10-12fps loss per inch....that=40-48fps loss
so 323-40=283fps or 323-48=275
so now the arrow ..the bow is shot with a 350 grain arrow and you are shooting 420grains
so 420-350=70 grains so 70 div by 3=23fps loss in arrow speed
so just in draw and arrow that should be 63-71fps loss
323-63=260fps

still a great bow but its not that fast are you sure its 26" you should have #2 cam with module A
what arrow are you shooting? and what tip? and how long?
it is real hard to get a 26 or 27" arrow to weight 420grains.
I can set one up when I get back to the shop next week.
