Steve I’m sure your right but I can’t wait for you to see this bow. Where the arrow lands is what counts not how fast the machine said it got there. Arvin

   Arvin, I believe you but I don't believe the reading you are getting. The profile is just not aggressive enough to get those kind of numbers. Your flight shots indicate a speed of about 180 or low 180's. There is a glitch in some of the chronos that I have noticed that will put speeds either 20 fps fast or 20 fps slow. I could never figure it out but I have a feeling thats what you are getting. I could be wrong of course but I have tested scores of bows with similar profiles and certain rules seem to apply.

Did you ever chrono the bow i sent you Steve?

Let's see if this works for us:

I looked for video tags to embed it, but I don't see any in the header buttons. If someone can point them out to me or the code that is needed for the tags I can edit this and embed it instead.

Thanks to all that participated!!!! Marc St. Louis for telling to stay out of the hooks Steve for advising me to deepen my fades. BJ for having interest first. All that has looked and found interest in flight shooting. It’s been fun and I may have a few more test results come in. I have learned from this build believe me. Arvin
