    I said I had a bow that was shooting over 300fps 25 years ago (and no, it wasn't a hoyt). That was back before I had killed 50+ deer with a bow and thought speed matters.

    My AM is shooting 252fps with 480 grains.

    Let me educate you a little on the obsession cams. If you will take a close look at where the cable tracks are on the side of this cam you will see (no sharp curve) which will indicate a dump into the valley. [​IMG]
    Like I said. My obsession shoots a 410 grain axis at 63lbs at a 28" draw at 304fps. I think when you do the math, you can quit listening to everyones make believe story.

    I don't care how fast your bow shoots or anyone else's bow. What I do care about is how well they stack arrows and hold on target for the shooter.

    I watched the videos and know very well how the cam tracks. You may also see where I said typically and I have never once mentioned the obsession or it's specific cam. But it is a speed cam and seems to be a little like the spiral cam by hoyt which may be smooth but "I" will not shoot it for hunting either as it is a bear to rollover as it holds peak weight for a LONG time. Not a good match for hunting imo.

    So just shoot what you like and I will shoot what I like.

    In the end thats all that matters. There are a lot of good bows out there. Now that you mentioned stacking arrows. This was a cold bore 40yd group with it. Pretty good with my old eyes. Lol[​IMG]
