Lefty I have followed this thread with mild interest and I am not one to typically respond but as per your pictures posted there I was there when that picture was taken ut was at the ATA show and it was done at 5 grains per pound. I also understand that there is a lot of quality bows in the market and any individual should try a few and find out which one is right for them I love my apa bows. I find them super easy to tune very fast awsome customer service and who doesn't like to support canadian made products. But if someone was silly enough to run a speed pro arrow through a king cobra the first number on the cronograph wouldn't start with a 3........

No doubt APA bows are decent and quick, just pointing out that other bows are fast and just as fast....sometimes faster.

Would love to get a graduated draw board and put all the speed bows on it to measure. I am pretty sure an RPM360 at 31 inches would be very close to the 370 mark as well.

But you are basing your argument on a chronograph reading of a speed pro arrow why don't you just compare it to a crossbow then? Might as well... if they give there ibo raring and it is within ata guidelines what's the big deal if it was easy for companies to have a 370 ibo rated bow everyone would have one but besides pse and apa there is not anyone on the market that can claim those speeds

Sorry to dissapointment you all.
The fastest bow of all time hands down.
Was the fiberglass 45*lb pull bear recurve that crossed on a 747 flight from NY to FL.
Fred will tell you all about the trip.

Fastest bow on earth. To this day.


Fred would say something like "Ya just blowin' smoke".
