PSE Primos STL set at 70lbs/29in draw

 

Vital Impact carbon arrow-385 grains with 100g broadhead=289fps

 

Carbon Express carbon-487 grains with 100g broadhead=255fps

 

My PSE mach 8 I had before Sportsmans Warehouse dry fired it, would shoot the same Carbon Express arrow at 487grains 282 fps and you could sneeze during the shot and still hit the target(very forgiving).

They dry fired your bow!?! :unsure:  What happened? Let's hear this story!

 

I brought my bow in to have the sight squared and had to go back out to my truck to get my release. When I came back in the kid was shooting my bow in the back, when I started to walk back there I heard what sounded like a dry fire, as I walked around the corner he was throwing my arrow down the lane. I asked him if he dry fired it and he said he didn't know. I got the manager involved and they both tried to take it apart and fix it, but I told them they just bought a new bow, like there sign says next to the new bows. So that is how I got a new PSE primos stl. I should have told them to give me mach 10, but I wasn't thinking. David

Good thinking on using their rules on them! I know that unless I'm at Waterdog Willy's I never let my bow out of my site, that is why. Glad to hear they fixed everything.

Thanks everyone; you helped me make a few decisions.

 

I knew I was really always shooting a draw length that was a little too long. I shortened the draw to 27", cut the arrow back a little, and turned the bow to 65 LBS. I am now shooting ~250+.

 

Thanks,

Does anyone know of a Chrono in Tucson? Just broke in my new Bowtech Allegiance on a muley in NM last weekend. Worked great, I love this bow, shoots very flat and forgiving but would love to see how fast it is really shooting. :D
