Real speeds for Hoyt Ultra Elite and others
I have started to look at purchasing a Hoyt Ultra Elite, P.S.E. Mach Pro with NRG single cam, AR 37 Blade with Ram Cam and a half. Shooting 60 lb., 28" draw using 5 gr. per pound. I would like to shoot around 270 fps or better! Which of these do you think would do that an if they all will do that which one should I go with and why? May use the same bow lowered to 50-53 lbs. to shoot indoors for spot shooting. Thanks

RE: Real speeds for Hoyt Ultra Elite and others
The speed should be easily achievable with the Ultra elite and I don't know much about the AR but would assume it should reach it too.
I shoot an Ultratec at 28.75 draw at 58#-59#'s and get 271 out of a 325 gr arrow.Hoyt has been playing it safe with their speed ratings and there bows have not been long on draw so the numbers they post are usually a good number to go by.
If the price of the Ultraelite doesn't scare you off then I would buy it.That bow has proven itself already in the tournament ranks and the Proelite has been proving itself even more.Of course the shooters are doing it but there is no question their equipment is up to the task.
I am planning on one of the Proelite bows to be in my arsenal come this fall.Still have some saving to do for that one.[
