    Just started my first one two weeks ago...lets just say I have the fastest bow, skinniest arrows, and shoot the most poundage...

    All bc I only have a strictly hunting setup, and these guys with their 3D setups are way different. I still have a lot to learn.

    I shoot 3d all year for strickley archery in illinois i use a hunting setup and i shoot better than most the guys with 3d setups and they all shoot around 40 to 50 pounds i shoot 70 but the setup dont matter i think its how you shoot what fits you best to shoot.

    I am in a 3D league with Treehopper and Xtreme16 and I also shoot in a 5 spot league at the local bow club.
    On that note, if you guys have never tried 5 spot, and can find a league that isn't so competitive, do it. I tried it last year and I really think that it made me a better shot.

    Midwest Archery in Saint Michael.

    It is every Thursday for 10 weeks. It is individual so you can shoot it anytime during the day.

    Not that it matters, as I wasn't too interested in specs before you posted, but check again.

    Chill R is faster than anything Hoyt has at 342 FPS. Besides that there pretty much neck and neck.

    I dont believe that's what Tyler bought... which is why I was initially referring to the Creed.

    Oh ok. I didn't know you were specifically referring to the creed that Oly bought. I thought in general.
