To bad the contest is for bow hunters! Would really like to get my hands on the book but know nothing about archery except they got deep in the bush and eat what the stick :dunno: That's all I know :bash: :bash:

Carnivore, what do you mean "not on F/B" -- The link I gave should take you right to ElkNut Outdoors on F/BI thought you meant you had to put your guess on facebook and I don't do facebook.

Also, anybody around the Republic area have a chrono they'd let me shoot through? I made my own bow and wanna know what it's flinging arrows at.

sorry I dont by your speed inless you shoot a bow with a 5 inch brace hieght . I know that alot of guys use the rated ibo speed of a bow to guess there speed but the reality is when you put a hunting wieght arrow through it they slow way down . I'm not trying to diss anyone just bring a lil reallity to some of those really hi fps .
+1
It makes me wonder how many guys are roaming the woods with illegal arrow weight.

ok dy . I shoot 72 lbs with a 418 gr arrow at 31 inch draw and shoot 304fps If you shoot the same combo at 27.5 inches you will loose at least 15fps , sorry I dont by your speed inless you shoot a bow with a 5 inch brace hieght . I know that alot of guys use the rated ibo speed of a bow to guess there speed but the reality is when you put a hunting wieght arrow through it they slow way down . I'm not trying to diss anyone just bring a lil reallity to some of those really hi fps .
Couldnt agree more. I have yet to see a hunting set up on any bow come really close to the IBO speed. And I was one of those guys who when finally chronoed there bow was very disappointed at the speed compared to what I thought I was getting.
Post by: christopheri on March 25, 2012, 02:00:58 PM
My Guess is 272.5 fps

Never had mine Chrono'd but I really want to. IBO is 315 and I swear I'm shooting 180-200ish.

5 grains is what legal arrow weight is in idaho and ibo for there standards as well. Ibo should be the same w 30" +/- 3/4" draw and 5 grains. - 1 fps for every inch of draw less and + 1 fps for every inch over 30". Anything much over 300 fps would be far fetched but he might just hardly break it and then I might win.
You actually lose about 8-10 fps every inch under 30. Every 30gr over 350 for your arrow is about 10fps. Every 5lbs under 70 lose about 10fps. Average weight on string is 20-30gr so another 5-10 fps. This bow is rated 321. How could it possibly beat 300? Ibo is exactly 30" draw, 70lbs, 350gr arrow. Sorry if this helps people's guesses but I hate seeing so many misinformed people on here.
