I am planning on trading my Hoyt Faktor in for a Carbon Spyder Turbo. Lets say that both bows are set at 60# with the same draw length, same arrow, would the turbo have any decrease in kenetic energy? It just doesn't make any sense if it does, I'm pretty sure that it will not, just wanting a little confirmation.
I don't see why,it would decrease. Increase definitely but not decrease Sent from my SM-G920V using Tapatalk
If all things are equal between the two the turbo will certain have more. I will say this though make sure you can shoot it. The draw cycle and the brace height are different. The Brace on a number 1 module will be 5 5/8th on the turbo and the draw cycle is a little tighter. If KE is you only worry you are good to go. Also be aware you may need to recheck the spine on your arrows. Might not be an issue but may need to go a little stiffer. Good luck.
the faster bow will have better KE speed will have the most impact on KE however you need to find the sweet spot of mass and speed for the setup KE = 0.5 • m • v2 where m = mass of object v = speed of object
I prefer fast bow. same as I prefer heavier arrow over weight. therefore with a harder shooting bow. you can increase arrow weight for same trajectory you have now. IMO increasing KE with arrow weight is better than speed. and yes faster the arrow the more kin with same weight.
If the FPS at IBO is higher on the Turbo, which I am certain it is, you will gain K.E. Do yourself a favor, google "On Target 2" , download the trial and you can compare them side by side with your settings and you'll see the K/E output for each given the specs you enter.
