PSE X-FORCE

[SPIKER]

It lives!!!! Anyone interested in a Mach X, and a FireFLITE ;D

The limb design is certainly interesting. Looks like a lot of preload on those limbs.

Here are some facts on the X-Force

346 fps - with 93 ft pounds of Kinetic energy
6" BH
33" axle to axle
26-30" of draw length range
4.1 lbs mass weight
70% or 60% let off

Speed rating is with a peep and and string loop. Take those off and the bow shoots about 350 fps.

Limbs go past parrellel at full draw. No vibration because of the limb design.

Some other examples of speed ratings - at 26" the bow will shoot 302 fps. At 28" the will shoot 322 fps.

At 75 lbs - 30" draw, the X-Force will generate 95 ft lbs of Kinetic Energy. Normally you would have to shoot a 100 lb bow to generate this kind of Kinetic Energy.

The bow will shoot about 250 fps with a 750 grain arrow.

Diane is already trying to sell me one... note the 26" test.
Also note they don't shoot their listed ibo bare string like most.

What's on the string? Are you referring to the pic you posted?

Most manuf. quote bare string speeds.

At 75#, what about 60#? with 29" dl. It's probably still awesome! Gonna have to go over there and check it out.

I'd love to see the test by someone other than PSE. I KNOW my bow shoots 321 fps fully maxed out with nothing on the string except speed nocks because I had it chronoed shortly after getting it. It verified what was written on my Bowtech Birth Certificate. And that was at 29" /71#'s . Makes me feel a bit more confident in their reported speeds. Now as for my PSE Thunderbolt. That's a horse of another color. It was off by 17 fps than the reported IBO speed. Still quite fast at 288fps but not the 305fps it was reported to be.

I'm shocked, SHOCKED.. you are implying IBO and manufacturer claims wont match reality. /sarcasm.

I never said it shot that in real world.
I said that is what they reported, like HCA is reporting 395 with speed arrows. IBO is not real, it is just a theoritical comparison of marketing generated speeds.

BUT, it is nice to see PSE putting together a speed bow and for the brand of PSE to be moving up from the back of the bus.

Shocked!
