    Default Ordered my Ninja GT500 today!

    After finding out that my favorite dealer started selling Elites a couple months ago I made the hour drive to look at the Z28. The only Elite I had shot was my E500's so I had to shoot the newer ones. I shot the GT500 a few times, then the Z28 a couple then I ordered a ninja GT500. Man that was a smooth shooter! Archery in the wild in longmont CO had some camo and AT version GT's, Z's and XLR's. I was ready to order a Z just for the shorter ATA, but after shooting, the choice was clear! And as hard as it was to walk away from an AT, I must wait a couple weeks for my ninja. See I said a few days ago on the "promise" thread that my next new bow would be an Elite

    What kind of speeds are you guys getting from a 29" 70 lb GT500?

    Congrats on the GT. It's a great bow.
    At 28/70 I was getting 318-319 w/ the '08.5 I had. I have an '09 GT now , but I haven't chrono'ed it yet.
    You can expect mid to upper 320's if tuned right.
