You are using a #3 cam I believe? A #2 cam maxed out will outperform a #3 in medium setting but the he draw will be a little more stout.

I brought it to the bow whisperer (Lawrence) to lengthen out the draw for me because I'm a 29" draw but the #2 only goes to 28. Lawrence twisted up my cables a bit to stretch it out a little and swapping the factory handle with side plates got it to where it feels like a 29" draw. As an added bonus I gained 5lbs draw weight. My Carbon Defiant Turbo shoots about 2fps or 3fps faster than my RX1 Turbo but that's at the top end of the #2 cam on the Defiant so I'm not surprised.

I have been bringing all my bow to Lawrence for many years to tune for me and I always walk out of there with a smile from ear to ear. I bet he could even make a Mathews feel good!!!!
