Got a Question
with the speed of the bow's of today
What minimum poundage do you shoot for 3D?
Or do you max. it out ?
And what poundage do you shoot at?

I shoot 60#...

I try to get all my 3D bows to hit right around, 60-62 lbs........:noidea:

you need some weight there to keep you steady:rockon:

I shoot 60#...

I guess we are the only one's on here that shoot 3D:lol:
Im asking, to figure out what ta set the Mojo at.
I shot it for the first time yesterday on 58lbs, Smokin the arrow
I dont know if i want to crank it up.:noidea:

I started shooting 3d's with a 55# , and went to 70# it was too much so now I'm back at 60-62#

I'd stay where you're at maybe go 62#...:noidea:

I was shooting 90lbs back in the late 80's when I was a lot younger but we had to shoot that kind of poundage to break the 300 fps mark. Now days I am happy with 60 to 62lbs for hunting and 3D...:noidea:

you got access to a cronographer
i tighten mine till i am in tha 284 range bout 60 lbs
remrmber when we shot 80 #

That big single cam is already got weight to it im not sure.
I think im gonna leave it and drop my point weight 25gr's
Im already getting 5fps faster than my last bow on 60lbs.

I remember those days.:rockon:

I answered the question:noidea:

Yep i was thinkin 60-62. maybe:noidea:

the differance is this bow, most likely shoots better:lol:

I did 277 on 58lbs

try to get 3 more feet out of her and shut her down Kenny:rockon:

the differance is this bow, most likely shoots better:lol:

Ya have to shoot a Mojo, thats all i can say:biggrin1:
Ive never shot a bow like it, no sound no vibration
Im not even gonna put an sts on it, dont need 1:noidea:

DUDE........they ALL need an STS.......its like a rest and a sight......

try to get 3 more feet out of her and shut her down Kenny:rockon:

But i think im just gonna drop the point weight 25grs

DUDE........they ALL need an STS.......its like a rest and a sight......

I wanted to put 1 on it but im serious, there is no sound
I think its being deadned by the stop on the cableguard:noidea:

60#, but with the new bow I have not got my arrows finished yet. So not sure, But I want an X force so I can shoot 280's at 25 pounds lol

My norm is about 53# and nearly maxed out as I order my bows with 55# limbs, That being said, even at that low weight, with the cam options and super tuning, shooting a 267gr arrow I still can achieve speeds between 280 fps and 300 fps depending on which bow I shoot.

Well right now my XT is set at 72# and shoots 275fps. With a 390gr arrow. So thats probably what I'll use. I have'nt shot much 3D so I'm just learnin. As for the STS Kenny it does more than just quiet the bow.:rockon:

3D bow is at 62#, was 64# maxed out w/ the new strings.

yeah MINE too, whats up with that??:D

I was being serious........:tape:

...I can't keep up with some of you guys. I stick with 60lb limbs and snug 'em down. Same for hunting. For 3d I don't give a hoot about noise, let it sing. I've been using Maxima 250's mostly for the few 3ds I get to go to, took off the STS. I don't see a noise reduction with it, just a different noise. I have no idea what actual speed I'm getting but doubt it's above 270.

I shoot my vectrix at 65 pounds for 3d and hunting. My 3d setup is shooting just over 300 fps and my hunting setup is around 280. I utilize my range finder for hunting but I need speed for 3d cause I can't judge. :frusty: :frusty: :frusty:

Its called new string stretch.:lol:

I've got string marked on both ends, so far so good.

Did I mention before how much I like these strings :biggrin1:.

I didn't realize how much my Doinker Elite did until I put the new strings on and shot w/ out it on. That thing absorbs a load of shock and quiets her down ALOT! I don't feel the need to add an STS to it. :peace:

on a Prestige????

you dont have an STS on your Prestige??:dizzy: :dizzy: :dizzy:

No, I was going to slap one on it but I'm tellin ya that Elite Suppressor soaks up vibration and noise like you wouldn't believe.

Buckeye if you want to get those couple pounds back put a twist or two in your control cable, tighten it, this cable will tend to settle in place or stretch a little at the beginning. When the cable lengthens a micro you will loose a few pounds and shorten your draw a micro. The cable tends to settle into place some more then the string, this somewhat due to the cable not being twisted as much. check your nock position when done also
Just a idea :decision:


My poundage
50 lbs indoor on the average
50 to 55 lbs for outdoor field
62 lbs on the average for 3D

JDX-- :peace:

Thanks for the tip JDX, but I was saying if were to max out the limbs it's at 64# and I backed it down to 62# to be closer to the spec. of the bow.

Thanks though.

55# is what i shoot at............

on a Prestige????

you dont have an STS on your Prestige??:dizzy: :dizzy: :dizzy:

You dont allways need an sts:D
Ha Bunnyman ?
Have you shot with and without the postons on the pristige?
any difference?:noidea:

62# Hunt and 3D. Same bow.

81.987 # :biggrin1:

When I use my Guardian 70# because it is my hunting bow. My Commander which is 60# is my outdoor target bow is also my 3d bow.

I did like Bunny said:biggrin1:
I cranked her up to 60lbs, reset the loop, and dropped the point weight,75gr.
282fps:D
set the sight in at 20yds and shot about 50arrows with my son shooting beside me.
I got him to listen to the sound and he was amazed at no sound at all so no sts is goin on her.
I was groupin baseball groups at 20yds not leaveing about a 4inch group thru all 50 arrows.
My son was mad i busted 1 of the few nocks he had in the X:lol:
I put her away:D
Last up-grade im waiting on the posten V-bars and ill post some pic's of her:D
My son looked at this bow and he refered to it as in drag raceing as the difference between a pro-stock to a top fuel dragster, I said ya i know:lol:

your waisting your time, not putting an STS on that bow, KBO......

your waisting your time, not putting an STS on that bow, KBO......

why u say?
What is it for besides sound reduction?:noidea:
Wearing out your string and added weight?:noidea:

NOISE......NO MORE

vibration.......NO MORE

Accuracy....ENOUGH TO MAKE IT WORTH PUTTING ON........


THE SMOOTHEST BOW EVER produced may be the Switchback XT......not because I am a fanboy, just that it is.......and it improves that bow, it can IMPROVE any bow.....

the arrow leaves the string at a more precise time at each shot......increasing ACCURACY.......

OH and the tiny bit of weight it adds is nothing......A heavy bow is a steadier bow.....

STRING WEAR???? are you serious???

serve the inch of string it contacts........problem solved:wave:
