Matt & RJ
I understand the problems that longer draw lengths pose and while I do like the commander, I really like the new upgrades put on the General (roller guard &string suppressor)I have those on my Mathews and I'm just thrilled with how they perform. I've never in my life hunted with a bow that had nothing but a peep and nock set on the string....and still be quiet as a church mouse. I also really like the look of the new cams on the General.
Matt,
Shooting a big heavy arrow is very appealing to me too, it's definitely in the plus column for BowTech.
So........
I will sit back and see what's around the next bend

But the nice thing is.........you can get those speeds with like a 6lb. arrow. 
Heck just sharpen up a shovel and you should still be in the 260's anyway.
I understand your frustration, many times the long draw length guys aren't left out for cost cutting reasons etc, it's simply because the design geometry will not allow it.
The speed thing is not a high priority for me...I'm cool with the speeds I'm getting now... I actually prefer it in the 270fps rangebut that's a story for another time.
