It is faster than my vulcan but from what we can tell it did not hit the marks they said it would. Now other people on other sights say they are.........I don't know. They may get in an IBO bow soon, if they do I will re shoot it and see. I at least want to try 29", 70#'s with a 350grain arrow. Now this bow wasn't "tweaked" but it was at spec.
It was a nice shooting bow and it was fast.

ok... NO bow ever really shoots IBO.
the PSEs from what I have seen get about as close as anyone, as they generally list IBO with a loop and peep. A lot of people, a lot, are reporting just about ibo within a couple fps with IBO arrows for their X force.
My Diablo is getting 260fps w/26" draw, over IBO arrows (100gr instead of 85gr heads), and cat whiskers, dloop, G5 Peep, and factory strings. It would be getting darned near IBO if I had proper length, withough taking stuff off the string. But I also went to one of the best PSE shops in the NorthEast to get it set-up.
I wish Spiker got better service and better speed out of his bow, but I don't know what is wrong with it. Something is wrong though and they should have exchanged it.
K, best of luck getting your UberBow Skip... keep us informed.

321!! At 29" which is my draw length, but 67...did you really say 67#!!!!!!! Geez here we go again , what's with this number! ;D ;D ;D ;D ;D ;D ;D ;D ;D ;D Anyway, 67# is a little much for me, so let's say 62#. The math is not in favor of the X force! I think that I'm going to have to come down and do a real comparison test instead of wondering......67...my god!!  Shaman...you should hear it creaking again, I'm so pis$ed, I think that I might just shoot it with the Mossberg...I'm not kidding!!! I'll show pic's, and have BT, and skip as witnesses!!!!!   |

I have to say that I have only seen one bow lines hit it's IBO and that is a Bowtech. With a birth certificate and a return guarantee of +/- 2fps ... you have to. That being said....I have seen Hoyt bows exceed their IBO standards at 27 & 28" when adjusted for that draw length , whereas other bows under perform by a big percentage.  |
