Default RE: whats your speed?

I chrono'd mine today for the first time...my arrow weight and field tip combined is 461 grains. Shooting my setup with that arrow weight is 258 fps.

The bowshop owner dropped to a lighter arrow and shot 288 with my bow. I could get about 30 fps faster with lighter arrows...

Honestly, it don't bother me a bit.
