[QUOTE="AllOut, post: 1254368, member: 12099"] there are tons of things to throw in when talking about velocity... riser design, cams, limbs, draw lenth and weight, arrow weight etc. a few key things are draw length... longer equals more speed on the same bow like stated above (power stroke).... cams, double cams are typically faster but are not as smooth or easy to draw as a single and how extreme the cams are...brace heigth (the distance from your string to the riser), the shorter the faster but is less forgiving...arrow weight is obvious, lighter is faster.... draw weight, another obvious but doesnt account for as much speed as u would think.... there is a reason your hunting bow wont shoot IBO (the speed the bow claims) its because IBO is done at 70lb 30inch draw with a 300gr arrow..... my hunting setup is 28inch so minus 20fps and my arrows are 450gr so minus another 10fsp (roughly) so im already 30fps slower and thats not including differnt string material which is heavier, my peep and string sliencer and the added serving for them (any weight added weight to the string slows it down)... these are generic things typical to most bows when considering speed [/QUOTE]
