Your post exudes maturity as well. Seriously, I was just giving my opinion on a bow, didn't need a speech on how it's a speed bow, that's obvious. Sorry, I guess for giving an opinion
Fair enough...No harm, no foul
[QUOTE=Stixshooter;197727]I shoot all kinds of bows ... just shot a Reezen and an Admiral the other day it's just the certain crowd that can't quite let go...
The Z is a speed bow ... What do you want !!???

Speed is a matter of perception..........so anything north of 300FPS would be a speed bow in my opinion.......a shootable bow on the other hand is an entirely different argument....can we move on........

Speed bow with forgiveness in my book
If 340 ish ain't a speed bow then what is? Still many marketed under 320 ....A hunter speed bow at the least

huh?
"340ish"?? More like 320ish, which by the way, is plenty fast but let's not stretch the truth too much.
Straight from Elite's website .....
Z-28
ATA - 32 1/2”
BH - 8”
Draw Length - 27-30”
Draw Weight - 60-80 lbs
IBO Speed - 336 FPS
What other bow with that much brace has those #ers???? Looks like 340 ish to me..
Now why is the GT500 faster?? That's right ... 1" less Brace ... same cam...
ATA - 34 7/8”
BH - 7 1/8”
Draw Length - 27-30”
Draw Weight - 60-90 lbs
IBO Speed - 346 FPS (10 fps for every 1" BH)
Now why is the Monster 360? That's right ..2" less brace ... (That's +20fps) Ya'll see the trend here?
Cams and limbs are at their design limits ... you can't have a square draw force curve ... Don't you think the likes of Matt, Kevin and the Shepleys could have boosted IBO's significantly w/o shortening BH's by now? Actually Kevin has came the closest of them all .......
All Elite's seem to me to be "speed bows" in their given segments ...
I think I'm starting to understand how Obama got elected....

If 300 fps is the bottom for a "speed" bow, then almost every new bow out there is a "speed" bow. My 42" ProElite ibo's at 315, but I would hardly call it a speed bow. I do however agree on the "shootable" part, my belief is that's why Kevin hasn't built one yet to bring to market...he wants it to be shootable too.
