    Gives a whole new meaning to the term "BowFlex"...I don't "hate" the design, I wouldn't own it though. 485 fps is insane. At least they're pushing the envelope in design. I think they really missed the mark on the weight of it. It would be cool if it was some astonishingly low weight like 1.5 lbs.

    Judging by how he drew back and aimed, I'd be willing to bet that he didn't shoot that group at the end. ;)

    This video shows the bows speed http://youtu.be/kHxS2eiEZ3M With a 386 grain arrow it shot 251 at 80 pounds. The advertised speeds are for steel balls. It is nothing the market hasn't seen in terms of bow speed. Now I do think it's one of the fastest slingshot every.

    I admit that I watched the video without sound but I got the impression that the kid had no idea what he was talking about and was a complete idiot. Could be wrong but that's the impression I got from no audio.

    And that is spot on. No offense but the kid was a moron when it came to archery.
