          Brother, if I did my figures right you are exactly where you need to be. 645grs out of a 43# bow puts you at 15gpp.

          If there is anyway to get that tiny bit extra FOC you would be hitting a home run.

            I just read some posts on the FOC forum and realize I can cut my fletchings back to those A&A shapes and try only three inches. Thanks Troy for getting this forum started.

              Tom,

              Ed Ashby, David Peterson, Kingwouldbe (aka David Deville), Smithhammer, and others are just as much in the makeup of this forum and myself.

              This forum allows us to talk with like minds without being bothers by the peanut gallery and non believers.

              Troy
