[QUOTE="Kaveman, post: 182309, member: 9806"] J E C, could you expound a bit on your research. What type of bow, what type of cam/wheel (if any), what limb material, what limb configuration (2 or 4 limbs, straight or recurve, parallel or perpendicular, length), riser information (material, length, brace height), string and cable information (steel or fast flight cables, axle or yoke style cable suspension, hard or soft yoke, nocking point height, was a loop used (hard or soft))what type of arrow rest, arrow information (material, length, outside diameter, wall thickness, weight and type of point, fletching material, straight, angled or helicle (right or left), manufacturers straightness and weight tolerance), release or fingers, conditions on the day/dates of testing (temperature, elevation, wind speed and direction, shooting direction, cloudy-sunny-clear-precipitation-time of day), angles to achieve max distance with each shaft, date/dates of testing (mm/dd/yyyy), what type of bow shooting device was used to clamp the bow in place for 6 shot group testing. It is not necessary to include manufacturer names. I am not stirring the pot, just trying to clarify some of the variables that are a direct impact on the results. These numbers seem a bit soft for modern equipment, particularly the size of the groups at a given distance. All of the equipment we sell in our proshop will out perform the results posted in good conditions and destroy those results in perfect conditions. That being said, only a handful of the shooters that dawn our door are capable of shooting the 60 and 100 yard groups posted in your research. Again it ALL boils down to shooters ability and confidence. Thanks. [/QUOTE]
