    I just run my hunting arrow through the ke chart in the tech forum. 438gr. 322 fps and a whopping 100.87 flbs. of KE.
    I dont think I would like pulling those arrows out of the 3/d target.
    No ifs and or buts Just maybee.

    Default 60 # Gto

    For those of you wanting some numbers from a 60# GTO

    60# 28" draw 80% let off

    300 gr = 323 fps
    360 gr = 301 fps
    375 gr = 295 fps
    400 gr = 289 fps

    I had P.M'd they same set up to a member but I also made a slight change to the mod and picked up a fps or so since then.

    The 60# is about 4-5 fps slower than a 70# when set up at 5 grains per pound.

    The GTO's are like that Big & Rich song, "Coming to your city".

    The speed est. was within 1 fps of what Kevin posted, when you punch in 345 as the IBO.

    I don't think you will be pulling them out maybe just picking them off the ground behind the target with that K.E.
