    On the new Destroyer 350? Also, what kind of speeds can one realistically get with the hunt set up ? peep, kisser, string silencers, 355 - 365 gr arrow. 70# pull. drop away rest, D loop. and 2" razer vanes (feathers) .. and 28.5 " draw... I have a friend who says he won't buy a new bow until he finds one that will shoot in 320's fps with all these things on it.

    my d350 birth cert says tested at 29'' 70lb with a 350 arrow @ 349


    I am shooting a full loaded string,loop and peep with a 360 grain flatline arrow
    with a sizzor rest 30" draw at 70 lbs thru the chrono at 343 fps. the bow shoots great groups and i have had zero problems and shoot 3-5 times a week.

    I plan to hunt with this setup and arrow. the bow just smokes shot after shot.

    I would not see an issue reaching 320 with those specs....

    well I will certainly tell him, I just have never seen a bow actually reach its specs with a hunting set up.

    My brother shoots at 70lbs with a 28.5" or 29" draw and shoots 420grain arrows and is right at 300fps if I remember correctly. 320fps with a 360 grain arrow shouldn't be a problem at all.
