    Just kinda trying to get a feel of what everyone's FOC is. I have mine set up at 13.5% FOC. I shoot a Bear Super Mag 48. How about y'all?

    It's not important to me. I'll concern myself more with physical weight of the arrow and the broadhead.

    I would consider modifying your poll because I bet a lot of people have under 11%. A lot. Not saying that is a good thing but reality.

    I use to not care either but the the more I started messing with the FOC the more the arrow flight changed. My Easton Axis' were at 10% but I shifted on the GT's and adjusted them forward slowly and my groups got tighter.

    I would edit it to <11% but cant figure out how to

    The quick fletch vanes are a bit heavy 33 g so I think that has reduced my FOC a good bit. I would like to get closer to 20. I am more like 12-13 range now.

    For my setup 13-15%. Arrow FOC is a way under-valued tool for good arrow flight, accuracy and penetration.
