Patriot Dually 60lb owners
I am tring to decide if I want to go with a Patriot Dually. What kind of speeds are you getting with your bow? The brace height has got my really looking at this bow but after drawing a 70lb model and how it felt to my back I think a 60lb would be what I need. I am just having a hard time try to decide weather the bow is worth having to sell my Pro38 dually. I can pull it fine at 70lbs and it has a whole bunch of power shoots 340-343fps chronoed with 71lbs 30" and 351gr arrow, so moving up in speed problaly won' t happen even with a 70lb model but the eatra brace and slimmer grip has me looking pretty hard at it.

BC.
I had to crono mine last week at a 3d tournement.
Now I have on the string cats whiskers,peep,loop,tie in nocks plus the reciever for the magnocks.
Using a 345 grain arrow mine went 281fps.
Mine is only a 60lb 28" draw.
Hope this helps.

bigcountry25, here is what I get.
Pat Dually: 55#, 29" , 368 gr arrow = 288. 301 gr = 301. Loop & kisser added to the string.
P38 DC: 55#, 29" , 368 gr arrow = 278. 301 gr = 301. Set up the same as the Pat.
I like the grip and lower weight of the Pat better. I like the draw cycle of the P38 better. I will say this. For whatever reason, the Patriot hits like a truck. It consistently sinks arrows deeper into the target than the P38. I realize this isn' t live game, but side by side comparison should mean something.

Our local Bowtech dealer is shooting a D/C Patriot at 60#,28" draw length and a 308 grain arrow at 304fps with a string loop,and peep sight and the " Hush Kits" Another guy bought a 70#D/C Patroit and is shooting 318 fps at 29" draw length with a 350 grain arrow,and peep sight but off the string,no loop.
