They're just born that way, they deserve to be treated with love and respect like all other bows. Price isn't always about speed with bows. It's arguable that a $1500 bow that can throw ten thousand 330fps arrows down range with consistency is more valuable than a bow that will explode after throwing five hundred 370fps arrows downrange and shoots inconsistently. Build quality, materials, brand name and technology.
Heres a real world speed test, not 100% fair as the Logic, PSE and Hoyt have a whisker biscuit and the Triax has a three prong rest with no fletching interference, I personally dont think it made a difference, but it may to some. Logic IBO: 330 fps, Triax IBO: 343, RX1 IBO: 330-350 depending on model and the PSE IBO: 332-342. The PSE is fast, no doubt compared to the others, but the Prime, Mathews and Hoyt weren't that far off from each other.
Another culprit would be an un-tuned bow with lots of string attachments......or a highly over-hyped brand.
