No doubt you'll beat me on the deer. Went out last night and all I saw was a water moccasin :scared:
I have a 140 grains up front in my x-cutters. Gotta find some new 3D arrows for the marked yardage class though.

The XLR wth the CUda cams which is what you would need for your draw length is 36 1/2" A-A with a 8 3/8" brace.
The XLR I just shot was a 51.1# with a 350 grain arrow @ 28.5" draw it shot 272 fps.
So if you shoot a 380 grain arrow you will need about 60# to hit the 280-282 fps you are looking for.
steve bear 10-02-2008, 08:48 PM someone tell me why this is..E-500 62# shooting 312fps set at 10 yds i have a 6"drop at 30yds ..ok thats good.NOW
i have a 82nd 59# same arrow , set at 10 yds shooting 305fps has a 2" drop at 30yds.....how the heck can this be??????????:Cry: :Cry: :frusty: :frusty:

Measure the distance between the peep and the arrow at full draw on both bows...
Takeum 10-02-2008, 09:10 PM congrats on your new bow choice Dan,,,, I happen to like both my Z28 and Gt500 and I'm sure with whatever you buy.. you too will become a true believer in the power of Elite...

How did it draw DB? Our dealer dont have one is stock and might not get one for a while...I dont think he even ordered one yet...
I am wanting a XLR 28 dl 70# I heard they feel like your drawing alot less than what you are?I seen a guy post on elite forums that he wish he had got a 80 lb because it drew so easy and smooth...What is your thoughts?

Barry Artiste 10-04-2008, 11:04 AM To a experienced Female Archer, you would get alot of attention if you shot from an Italian Compound Bow made By Bernardini Skorpion 2000 Compound.
Just the machined Riser will set you back almost 1500 bucks, the complete bow may cost as much as 2 grand, without accessories. Nothing say you got Money by buying the Ferrari of bows. It would also help if you had a Ferrari to put the bow in, and just tell the babe, you bought the Ferrari as a Bow case for your bow.

No, but it will make your arse appear 23.6% smaller.
BowhuntnHoosier 10-05-2008, 09:06 AM Big "D"................whats up buddy? Glad to see one of our prodigal sons return.:peace: 23.6% sounds about right to me. You always were good with numbers.:lol:

Shooting it with a 2 piece Mathews quiver will also decrease the appearance of Moobs by 15.93%, using pink or magenta flu-flu arrows in the quiver will also decrease the appearance of a gut by 56%, however you will notice a significant shrinking of the "stones"
I'm doning okay... just been busy lately and finally its archery season! WOOOHOOOOOOOOO

Holy Buckets! I hit the mother load over the weekend! I have never seen a deer on this new property. We planted food plots starting in late February and just finished a pond a couple weeks ago.
So I'm too late for an evening hunting Friday night and I glassed the main plot. There were five (5) gooood bucks on the field. Three were knocking on the door of P&Y and two were easily over 140". I watched them spar, rub, and open up two new scrapes. One of the big boys got a branch caught in his antlers and shook his head around until it fell out.
Saturday morning I had does on the field in the dark so I backtracked to another stand on the other side of the property. At 7:30am I checked a field and there were 4 bucks sparring and at least 2 dozen turkeys crossing the field. The biggest was a non-typ with split g2's and g3's scoring over 140". He was doing some heated sparring with a P&Y contender. Not an all out war but more than good-natured shoving. The other two were a spike and a 7 ptr scoring ~80-90". When I grunted the spike came in and the rest jumped the fence and were on their way. I quick guestimated the distance at 35-38 yards where the big one would cross and drew back. As he crossed I grunted, shot, they all ran off. I hit the tree he was next to with the rangefinder and he was actually 51 yards! I missed big time!
First time in this stand and I had not ranged distances to objects yet.
